EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1.0 Introduction

The Town of Ajax’s Integrated Transportation Master Plan (ITMP) is a multi-modal planning tool for short, medium, and long-term goals that seeks to continue improving walking, cycling and motorized transportation such as transit, driving, and carpooling in the Town to the year 2031 and beyond. The purpose of the ITMP is to help Ajax address population growth, align the plan with Provincial and Regional government policies, enhance community benefits, respond to new transportation trends, and encourage public engagement and participation in decision- making. Utilizing the 2010 Ajax Pedestrian and Bicycle Master Plan and the 2013 Transportation Master Plan, the ITMP strives to merge the two documents into one all-encompassing planning document. The ITMP has been prepared under the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA) process and addresses both Phase 1 (opportunity statement) and Phase 2 (assessment of alternatives). Through three engagement rounds which involved committee workshops, public information centres, online surveys, and council presentations, the Town of Ajax adopted public consultation and engagement as a core component while developing this ITMP. The Town adopted an audience-focussed consultation approach applying qualitative and quantitative data collection methods to maximize the impact of stakeholders’ feedback.

2.0 Existing Conditions

Understanding Ajax’s existing conditions is key to develop a vision for the future. This section includes an analysis of the existing policy framework, Ajax’s socio-economic profile, mobility characteristics, transportation networks (walking, cycling, transit, and road), and current multi-modal operations with the most recent initiatives. Federal, provincial, regional, and local policy framework were summarized to set a baseline for developing the policy recommendations of the ITMP.

3.0 Vision and Stakeholder Engagement

Ajax’s future transportation vision was shaped by residents, stakeholders, Town staff and decision makers. It reflects the priorities and principles that are important to the Town, in its current state and for the future. It clearly defines what the Town intends to achieve for its transportation system and sets the guiding principles for decision-making.

The vision of the Integrated Transportation Master Plan is to enhance the sustainable and multi-modal transportation system for the Town of Ajax by planning, designing, “ constructing and maintaining a community and transportation network that supports pedestrian, cyclists, transit and vehicular traffic. The Town’s transportation system will be accessible to all users and all modes of transportation.

Multiple public consultation and engagement opportunities were offered throughout the” duration of the study. These were published through the project website, social media, and newspaper notices, and consisted of four stakeholder workshops, two public information open houses, two rounds of online surveys, and one presentation to Council. All the comments, input, and feedback from stakeholders and the public were grouped, mapped, and assessed to help inform the recommendations and the ITMP.

4.0 Recommendations

Using a multi-modal approach that highlights the interaction of non-motorized and motorized modes of transportation, recommendations were made for future walking, cycling and road infrastructure improvements as well as a series of fully-rounded policies to support these.

The recommended improvements to the active transportation network consisted of adding new facilities including off-road trails, multi-use paths, cycle tracks, buffered bike lanes and paved shoulders, regular bike lanes, shared facilities, and sidewalks. Developing Ajax’s future active transportation network involved mapping existing and planned conditions, creating criteria to determining new routes, identifying missing links, and finally confirming preferred routes and facility types. With reference to the most recent design guidelines and standards, the Town can continue to invest in active transportation infrastructure with the most up-to-date and inclusive design considerations to provide safe and context-sensitive solutions. The preferred future active transportation network is illustrated in Figure ES-1.

In conformity with Phase 2 of the MCEA process, the assessment of three alternative future alternatives for Ajax’s road network were studied and evaluated. Existing and future population and employment forecasts were used in a travel demand model that helped to evaluate the different alternatives considered, measured through multiple parameters grouped in three themes including mobility, congestion, and sustainability. The results showed that scenario 2 and 3 would result in less congested roadways but scenario 3 would result in additional capacity and higher costs, but limited benefit to the vehicle traffic flow on the road network. As a result, the preferred network alternative (Scenario 2) represents better network performance and fiscally responsible improvements both medium and long term. The preferred future proposed road network is depicted in Figure ES- 2.

Traffic operations along three road corridors were analyzed in order to provide recommendations to optimize levels of service at major intersections. The three corridors studied included Bayly Street West, Harwood Avenue South, and Westney Road South. Recommended improvements ranged from signal optimization, adding a protected left turn, and extending right turn lanes.

Ajax’s ITMP also provides a toolkit of six policies to support infrastructure investment and help achieve an inclusive, safe, and innovative transportation network. The Complete Streets policy will continue to provide attractive streets that are accessible for users of all ages and abilities. A policy to improving multi-modal operations seeks to reduce car-dependency and congestion while providing alternative travel mode options. The transportation demand management (TDM) policy intends to develop a balanced transportation system that provides a full range of travel choices through infrastructure, programming, education, and marketing of alternative modes of transportation. Through a Vision Zero policy, road safety is emphasized and proposes guidelines to develop a strategy with the goal of eliminating road traffic deaths and serious injuries within the Town. A policy to help prepare for new mobility technologies is also essential with the development of ride-sharing apps, electric vehicles, and autonomous vehicles. Lastly, the toolkit includes a policy to develop a strategic plan to consider intelligent transportation systems as a way to manage assets and optimize transportation operations.

5.0 Implementation Strategy

With the preferred recommended active transportation and road network improvements, the project timeframes were divided into short (generally within four years), medium (generally within 10 years), and long term (generally within 11-20+ years). Estimated costs for both the active transportation network and the road network have been

developed to guide and inform future decision making. Opportunities for funding have also been noted. Finally, an integral monitoring strategy with a comprehensive data-collection framework was developed to ensure that infrastructure investments translate into desired benefits and continue to assess the impact of public policy on key mobility trends and indicators.

6.0 Conclusion and Summary of Recommendations

This ITMP consists of recommendations that include physical infrastructure projects, policies, and additional studies to strengthen the Town’s multi-modal transportation network and make the Town “future ready”. The recommendations from the various chapters of the ITMP have been grouped in this section.

Future active transportation network

► Implement the proposed active transportation network illustrated on Figure ES-1.

► Update the Town’s mapping and GIS database on an on-going basis to reflect the most up- to-date conditions and changes to the active transportation network.

► Consider the recommendations to plan, design and implement active transportation infrastructure that accommodate a range of user abilities and ages, and encourage more people to engage in active form of recreation and travel.

► Refer to the latest design guidelines and standards to proceed with the design and implementation of inclusive and comprehensive active transportation infrastructure.

Future road transportation network

► Consider the implementation of Scenario 2 as the preferred alternative for the Town’s future 2031 and beyond road network, which includes thirteen roadways that could help to provide future capacity and enhance connectivity around the Town. Refer to Figure ES-2 for the proposed road improvements and corresponding phasing.

► Monitor traffic conditions to determine whether a possible flyover extension of Audley Road over Highway 401 to Chambers Drive is required at a long-term future date.

► Monitor and evaluate the extension of Clements Road from Green Court to Church Street; and the extension of Williamson Drive from Harwood Avenue to Thackery Drive during the next official plan update. Constructing these links would not be anticipated to result in dramatic improvements of time savings or distance travelled and have a high financial cost risks due to infrastructure grade-separation challenges entailed.

IV

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v. 5.0

Strengthening transportation demand management (TDM)

► Infrastructure o Monitor regularly the condition and performance of the transportation infrastructure and find mechanisms to channel and process user feedback efficiently. o Integrate land use planning in transportation infrastructure projects to promote development that encourages short-distance trips that are not necessarily dependant on motorized vehicles. o Monitor the progress of smart technologies and be an early adopter of technologies that can make the existing infrastructure more efficient. o Require major private destinations and employers to provide locker rooms and shower facilities for cyclists.

► Promotion o Champions and mentors – Reach out to volunteers or pay community ambassadors to be part of a sustainable travel mentorship program. o Impart sustainable travel lessons to young children by working with police and elementary schools to deliver safe riding programs like Bicycle Rodeos. o Design and promote a Bicycle Mentor Program. o Continue enhancing the network of bicycle-friendly businesses and offer incentives to join the program. o Continue to work with Smart Commute Durham to promote TDM measures and programs in the Town of Ajax.

► Normalization o Strengthen the inclusion of TDM actions in key municipal documents. o Encourage the Province to place a greater onus on drivers with respect to their behaviour in the presence of vulnerable road users, through higher fines for offences. o Neighbourhood retailing - bring back neighbourhood retailing so households may avoid unnecessary long-distance trips; encourage such businesses through tax incentives.

Enhancing road safety through Vision Zero

► Using the Durham Region Road Safety Action Plan as a foundation, develop a Town of Ajax Road Safety Action Plan to provide the road safety goals and directives for preferred countermeasures, community initiatives, pilot studies, and education programs. This plan should be evidence-based by utilizing the collision analysis database to inform its content. To strengthen the Road Safety Action Plan’s resiliency, it should be developed collaboratively across disciplines and contextually to the unique conditions of Ajax’s transportation framework.

► In conjunction with Durham Region and other Regional Municipalities, create a database of KSI collision analysis.

► Develop a Road Safety Management Steering Committee which consists of a broad range of system designers and can inform implementation measures and objectives as the plan develops.

V

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v. 5.0

► Coordinate efforts with Durham Region to strengthen programs and continue to align objectives and data- collections methods.

► Develop a monitoring and evaluation framework for Vision Zero and the Road Safety Action Plan which allows for the continual update of the plan as conditions evolve.

Preparing for new mobility technologies

► Review zoning bylaw parking requirements and consider where it may be appropriate to reduce parking minimums due to potentially lower demand over the full building lifecycle; identify strategies to reduce parking demand in the interim on a case-by-case basis.

► Review opportunities for implementing electric charging infrastructure at public parking lots / garages for electric vehicles.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 What is the Integrated Transportation Master Plan?

The Town of Ajax’s Integrated Transportation Master Plan (ITMP) is a dynamic, multi-modal planning tool for the short, medium, and long-term horizons that embraces opportunities to improve walking and cycling and motorized transportation such as transit, driving, and carpooling to the year 2031 and beyond. Instead of addressing these opportunities through two independent plans for non-motorized versus motorized transportation, an integrated plan acknowledges the interrelation of theses modes and their synergies within a single transportation system.

A true multi-modal transportation network is built upon a comprehensive understanding of the existing interactions between all modes that share the street. Often the challenges and opportunities of these modes are not mutually exclusive and their successful interplay sharing the road space depends on coordinated efforts to seamlessly integrate facilities, thus allowing safe, accessible and comfortable usage and transfers between modes for all users. The ITMP is a toolkit with a series of recommendations to achieve a community vision of a well- connected, inclusive, and accessible transportation system that caters to the needs of all users and all modes.

1.2 Conception of an Integrated Transportation Master Plan for Ajax

The Town of Ajax has adopted many useful transportation planning documents in the past. In 2010, the Town adopted Walkable & Bikeable Ajax: the Ajax Pedestrian and Bicycle Master Plan, which focused on building the Town’s Active Transportation (AT) network and related facilities. In 2013, the Town updated its previous Transportation Master Plan (TMP) to provide recommendations for its future road network along with strategies to support multi-modal transportation including transit, goods movement, walking and cycling. The 2013 plan and its implementation strategy had a special focus on the evolution of the road network in the Uptown and Downtown and included active transportation components principally applied to specific locations in these locations.

Leveraging from these past strategic documents, the 2019 ITMP seeks to update and unify these past plans into one holistic planning document. The document amplifies the discussion around the role of active transportation in planning and consolidating a multi-modal network that balances the needs of multiple mode users regardless of age or ability. This integrated approach pays greater emphasis to sustainable modes of travel and builds on current efforts to provide more transportation opportunities for residents and visitors of Ajax. The ITMP also considers what has changed since the previous plans and looks to position the Town to be an early adopter of emerging technology and the latest best practices in transportation planning.

1.3 Plan purpose

There are five key reasons why the Town of Ajax is developing an ITMP:

i. Address growth

Ajax continues to experience population growth and with limited greenfield development opportunities. While these trends may continue to exert pressure on the transportation road network capacity, its is also an opportunity to increase mixed land use and promote sustainable modes of transportation such as walking, cycling and transit, which can optimize street space, time and resources.

ii. Align with higher-tier Provincial and Regional policy

Recent policy directives from the provincial government, Durham Region and Metrolinx have all refocused the vision for urban development in Ajax and throughout southern Ontario in a way to better utilize infrastructure investment by optimizing land uses in developed areas and creating hubs that include all modes of transportation. As a result, the Town intends to develop its ITMP to align with these government policies in a manner that addresses the needs of its own growing population and changing community dynamics.

iii. Enhance community benefits

The Town recognizes the benefits of sustainable mobility by planning for all modes of transportation to support the economy, protect the environment, and promote active and healthy lifestyles. Building and maintaining facilities that provide multiple mobility options enhance residents’ opportunities to reach employment, recreational, and educational benefits.

iv. Respond to new transportation trends

The ITMP explores the potential impact of emerging trends in mobility such as ridesharing, electric vehicles, telecommuting, autonomous vehicles, and intelligent transportation systems. It recognizes these new technologies as opportunities to optimize travel demand management and a behavioral shift towards more sustainable modes of transportation. A key intent of this document is to provide recommendations on how the Town may anticipate synergies of these trends with the rest of the transportation system.

v. Encourage public participation in the decision-making process

The ITMP is a document co-created by public and stakeholder engagement that together developed a comprehensive and aspirational community vision to address different user needs and goals. Throughout the engagement, multiple challenges and opportunities were voiced and helped shape the recommendations provided in this plan.

The main objective of this study is to update and bridge together the Town’s 2010 Ajax Pedestrian and Bicycle Master Plan and the 2013 Transportation Master Plan into one single comprehensive and holistic planning document. The goal is to provide a series of recommendations in the form of policies and infrastructure improvements for a fully integrated and multi-modal transportation network in order to accommodate population and employment growth to the year 2031 and beyond.

This plan builds on earlier plans and achievements which have sought to move travellers away from the single occupancy vehicle to more sustainable modes of transportation including transit, cycling and walking. What differentiates this plan from earlier plans is its emphasis on policies and strategies intended to foster real differences in the way people move around. Figure 1 illustrates the specific project goals of the ITMP.

Figure 1. Specific objectives of the ITMP

► Locate network gaps in the walking and cycling network to recommend safe and usable facilities. ► Identify road improvements and provide alternatives for the Town’s road network to meet future demand ► Evaluate existing traffic operations and make recommendations to enhance future performance at key intersections and busy corridors ► Develop practical policies to promote road safety and multi-modal travel ► Formulate recommendations for managing future travel demand and emerging trends ► Recommend active transportation facilities for design, operation and maintenance standards ► Propose an implementation and phasing strategy that integrates active transportation and road improvements ► Organize a data collection framework as part of a monitoring strategy to evaluate results

1.5 What is the modal split goal for Ajax?

The previous 2013 TMP Update set as a goal that transit, cycling and walking will account for 30 percent of all commuter trips by the year 2031.1 This is an ambitious target considering that in the 10-year period between 2006-2016, commuters travelling in sustainable modes grew approximately 3.4 percent (See Figure 2). This represented a moderate annual growth rate between 2006-2011 in sustainable modes of 2.2 percent, but then decreased in the following census period of 2011-2016 to 1.2 percent. This ITMP sets an ambitious but attainable goal to revert the trend to achieve over 2 percent growth between each census years, so that by 2031 the percentage of commuters taking sustainable modes account for around 26 percent, that is, almost 6.5 additional percentage points to the year 2031.

Previous efforts in Ajax to support a more balanced mode split were focused on the development of “Complete Streets”, the introduction of road, transit, cycling, walking and parking strategies in the Downtown and Uptown neighbourhoods, and the development of a transportation demand management plan which recommended promoting education and outreach programs, incentives and disincentive measures, and land use and urban design actions. In order to meet the 2031 goal shown in Figure 2, the Town needs to continue promoting and implementing these initiatives along with new strategies.

1.6 The Municipal Class Environmental Assessment process

This ITMP was conducted under the requirements of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment process. The Municipal Class Environmental Assessment process (October 2000, last amended in October 2015), sets out a methodology in accordance with the Environmental Assessment (EA) Act for municipal infrastructure projects. Master plans such as this one are required to be consistent with Phases 1 and 2 of the Municipal Class EA process, which entail the completion of the following key components:

• Identification of a problem or opportunity statement. ► Phase 1:

• Assessment of alternatives/solutions to address the problem or opportunity statement considering the local context and stakeholders input. • Evaluation of alternatives and identification of preferred solution and ► Phase 2: recommendations. • Selection of preferred alternative and recommendations.

► Public • Engagement throughout Phases 1 and 2 with public representatives and Consultation: stakeholders on preferred solution and recommendations.

1.7 Consultation process

Public consultation and engagement is a core component of the Class EA master plan process. An comprehensive consultation and engagement program was designed and implemented to inform key stages of the Ajax ITMP process. The next subsections provide an overview of the consultation approach, the stakeholders engaged during the study, as well as the project’s principal consultation milestones. A summary of the stakeholder engagement process and the corresponding feedback analysis is provided in Section 3.3. For detailed supporting documentation on this process please refer to Appendix A.

1.7.1 Approach

A Transportation Master Plan is a communication tool to shape a community vision through dialogue and engagement. Effective consultation provides valuable opportunities to building consensus among stakeholders while empowering them to commit to a plan’s desired outcome. Involving stakeholders from an early stage of a plan helps improve public buy-in for its implementation and amplifies its intended benefits as ideas are enriched and complemented by different actors to address different needs and expectations.

The Town of Ajax adopted an audience-focused consultation approach with the goal of maximizing the impact of stakeholders’ feedback on decision making on the ITMP This was measured based on the International Association of Public Participation (IAP2) Spectrum (see Figure 3), which is quickly becoming an international standard. A number of public events and online engagement opportunities were held to involve, collaborate, and empower various stakeholders to help inform the recommendations provided in this document.

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v. 5.0

► Identify which audiences will be engaged and assess their communication and engagement preferences.

► Manage the way in which the audiences are involved in the study process to obtain the most relevant and useful feedback.

► Document the input received and develop a method to track the ideas, questions and interests that are generated at key stages in the study.

► Incorporate findings by providing a clear strategy of how input received will inform decision-making.

1.7.3 Stakeholders engaged

The consultation and engagement program was designed with the intention of exchanging ideas with three key audiences:

► Residents and visitors: People who live and work in the Town of Ajax. Visitors who commute to or visit the Town also fall in this category.

► Advisory stakeholders: Local groups and technical agencies who play a direct or indirect role advising, working or collaborating in the Ajax’s transportation affairs.

► Staff and local decision makers: Councillors and Town staff responsible for the implementation and monitoring of the ITMP.

A detailed diagram of the stakeholders who were engaged during the ITMP process is depicted in Figure 5.

2.0 EXISTING CONDITIONS

2.1 Chapter overview

This chapter encompasses various aspects of existing conditions related to transportation in the Town of Ajax. First, the most relevant provincial, regional and local policies are summarized to set an analytical framework for the recommendations of the report. Second, key socio-economic and travel characteristics are examined, followed by a detailed review of the active transportation, road, and transit network. Lastly, multi-modal operations are assessed including key performance and network indicators of the system. The content of this chapter is meant to provide a picture of existing transportation challenges and opportunities that will inform, together with key stakeholder feedback and robust technical analysis, the recommendations of the ITMP.

2.2 Policy framework

All levels of government are challenging the Town of Ajax and other municipalities across Ontario to play a significant role in reducing single-occupancy car trips for commuting. Federal, Provincial, Regional, and Town policies have been written to promote less dependence on driving as the main commuting mode and moving towards a balanced use of alternative and more sustainable transportation modes. The most relevant policies to Ajax are listed and summarized below.

2.2.1 Federal

► National Vision for Urban Transit to 2020 (2001): This policy proposed a new direction for urban transit policy in Canadian communities, featuring a reduced level of motorized travel per person; less dependence on the private automobile; and more accessible transit service as widely available as possible.

► Federal Sustainable Development Act (FDSA) (2008): The FDSA sets a policy precedent at the federal level, asking other orders of government to take sustainability seriously, both in their own actions and the types of economic and development-related decisions they make within their jurisdictions.

2.2.2 Provincial

► CycleON - Ministry of Transportation Cycling Strategy (2013): The Cycling Strategy outlines a 20-year vision for cycling in the province, with proposed cycling infrastructure, education and legislation. The strategy acknowledges the importance of developing cycling facilities to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions, ease gridlock, benefit the economy, increase tourism and increase the quality of life for the residents of Ontario. The Province’s vision is to ultimately “develop a safe cycling network that connects the province, for collision rates and injuries to continue to drop, and for everyone from the occasional user to the daily commuter to feel safe when they get on a bicycle in Ontario.”

► Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) (2014): The PPS sets the foundation for regulating land use planning and development within Ontario, promoting land use patterns that support “a mix of housing, including affordable housing, employment, recreation, parks and open spaces, and transportation choices that increase the use of active transportation and transit before other modes of travel.” Transportation systems as defined in the PPS consist of corridors and rights-of-way used for the movement of people and goods as well as associated transportation facilities, including cycling lanes and park and ride lots.

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan 9

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

► GO Rail Station Access Plan (2016): This document provides strategic direction to accommodate growing demand in response to the Provincial commitment to Regional Express Rail (RER), which will put pressure on existing GO services and rail network. The main guidelines are set to increase multi-modal access at GO stations, managing demand for new parking, supporting transit-oriented development, promoting cost effectiveness, among others. The Plan expects doubling the system’s demand by 2031.

► Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe – Places to Grow (2017 Update): This plan directs much future growth to traditional downtown communities where it believes that the potential for intensification is highest. In Durham Region, those downtown areas are in Whitby and Pickering, while Ajax is identified as a Delineated Built-up Area. This means the Town must develop a strategy to achieve a certain intensification target (a minimum of 60 percent of all residential development occurring annually within delineated built-up area) and prioritize planning, infrastructure investment and public service facilities to support that intensification. It must also work with the Region to maximize the size of the area and the number of potential transit users (residents and employees) within walking distance of the Ajax GO station.

► 2041 Regional Transportation Plan (2018): The Metrolinx 2041 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) outlines the coordination plan between government and transit agencies to further enhance and build an integrated public transportation system in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area, with some projects reaching further beyond this geographic region. The Town of Ajax can significantly benefit from the proposals outlined within the RTP such as the provision of 15-minute two-way, all day rail service on the Lakeshore East Line as well as investment in the Durham Region Transit PULSE system, a bus rapid transit system. These investments will help the Town to work towards increasing the sustainable modal share.

2.2.3 Regional

► Durham Region Official Plan (2017): The plan sets the policy framework to guide future investment to the year 2031 and beyond. It aligns with future population and employment forecasts for this horizon and includes policies to enhance the quality of life and employment opportunities; strategies for future sustainable land development, measures to protect significant natural assets and agricultural lands, mechanisms to improve transportation linkages locally and with adjacent areas, among others. Many of the key transportation linkages include main arterial roads in Ajax.

► Durham Regional Cycling Plan (2012): The plan has a 20-year implementation horizon for a comprehensive, long term, commuter and recreational bicycle network, including key corridors in Ajax. Key recommendations include:

o A financing arrangement in which the Region remains responsible for all capital costs and maintaining on-road facilities on key Regional roads, while area municipalities maintain off-road, multi-use paths on Regional Roads; o The development of a communications strategy to ensure consistency in cycling messaging and policy across jurisdictions;

10

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

o Consideration of constructing off-road facilities outside of the Region’s road construction plan to close gaps and connect routes in the Cycling Network; and o Establishing partnerships with adjacent municipalities to fund and connect cycling routes beyond regional boundaries.

► Durham Transportation Master Plan (2017): The plan recognizes new regional population and employment targets of 970,000 and 360,000, respectively, with the goal to optimize existing infrastructure while also investing in new infrastructure where appropriate. Specifically, the plan outlines new high-level targets for mode share to 2031, and identifies corridors that require expansion, increased transit service, and improved AT connections; including numerous located in Ajax.

2.2.4 Local

► Ajax Official Plan (2016): The plan provides strategic direction on a series of key items to sustain a healthy population and a competitive workforce through land use designations; housing and employment opportunities; open spaces; and recreational and community facilities. In terms of transportation, it provides clear guidelines on the road system classification, parking, roads within the Downtown, active transportation, and support on the railway and transit system.

► Ajax Transportation Master Plan (2013): This document sets the stage for strategic transportation planning to the year 2031 for the Town. A major component included developing the preferred transportation road network and individual projects including: Hunt St., Finley Ave., Audley Rd. extension, Achilles Rd. extension, Harwood Ave. widening, Church St. widening, Rossland Rd. widening, and additional Downtown and Uptown improvements. The plan also emphasized transportation supportive strategies such as adopting a Complete Streets Policy, multimodal recommendations for specific locations in up/down-town, as well as traffic calming and school crossings warrants. Emphasis of this master plan was to identify strategies to encourage alternatives to the personal automobile and to raise the percentage of trips by transit and other sustainable modes.

► Ajax Pedestrian and Bicycle Master Plan (2010): The master plan details strategies for walking and cycling by focusing on key components including making pedestrian and cycling infrastructure visible through signage, wayfinding, and on-road markings. Emphasis was placed around Pickering Village, the Town Centre, areas with high pedestrian traffic, and key pedestrian crossings. The plan suggested connections to the trail system to connect neighbourhoods to key recreational destinations as well as filling in the gaps of sidewalks along the collector and arterial roadways. The proposed infrastructure improvements were supported by an array of policies, practices, and programs to encourage and reward walking and cycling as the way to help advocacy and commuter groups.

► Ajax Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Plan (2015): This plan adds to the Town’s efforts to increase the modal share of sustainable modes through a series of education and outreach programs, incentives and disincentive measures, and land use and urban design actions. In the short and medium term, the TDM Plan recommends 25 actions to encourage more sustainable travel behaviour including supportive actions such as enhanced partnerships with agencies, organizations and businesses throughout Durham Region.

11

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

2.2.5 Toronto and Region Conservation Authority

► Trail Strategy (2018): In 2018, the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) developed the Trail Strategy that serves as a framework to shape the planning, development and management of the landscape and trail network. This document seeks to acquire, protect and enhance natural assets while connecting people to nature. It provides the purpose, vision, strategic objectives, initiatives and actions and implementation guidelines to shape and direct the plan and develop 1,100 kilometres of regional trails for the Greater Toronto Region. It also identifies key challenges and benefits of the trail network as well as classifies the various trail typologies to provide an overview of the different components and their unique contributions to the overall network.

2.2.6 Benefits of conformity

The benefits of producing an ITMP that conforms to these policy directions lie in the support the Town is likely to receive from partners at other levels of government. Working in parallel with the planning and transportation initiatives undertaken by Durham Region and the Province of Ontario provides opportunities related to funding support, service improvements, and other complementary future projects from higher orders of government. It also establishes a basis for positive and mutually-supportive relationships among levels of government working towards common goals related to improved mobility, sustainability, and growth management.

2.3 Socio-economic profile

2.3.1 Population

The Town of Ajax has witnessed significant growth in the last three decades. In 2016, the population reached approximately 120,000 inhabitants. This is twice as many people as there were in 1991 and 10,000 more than just five years ago. The latter demonstrates a population percentage change of 9.2 percent since 2011; which is a considerable increase when compared to the Region’s 6.2 percent change in the same period. Table 3 summarizes the historic population for the Town of Ajax and the Region.

Table 3. Town of Ajax and Region of Durham population data, years 1991 – 20163 Town of Ajax Region of Durham Year Population Population 1991 57, 350 409,070 1996 64, 430 458,616 2001 73, 753 506,901 2006 90,167 561,258 2011 109, 600 608,135 2016 119,677 645,862

In terms of age classification, approximately 69 percent of Ajax’s population fall in the standard labour force age group. The remaining 20 and 11 percent correspond to children-young teenagers and senior population age groups, respectively (see Table 4). While comparatively similar, Ajax has slightly higher young-, and lower senior- age population groups when compared to the Region and Province. This classification is relevant to transportation planning as often the young and senior groups may experience more limited mobility options such as the ability to legally operate vehicles, and/or physical capability to access other travel mode choices. The ITMP recognizes the needs of all age groups, especially the more vulnerable ones, by planning to provide facilities and travel options for all ages and abilities.

2.3.2 Income and employment

Income in the context of transportation planning is an important variable influencing modal choice, trip frequency and car ownership. In 2016, the average household size in Ajax was of 3.2 persons and the median household income in 2015 nearly $97,000, which is nearly 30-38 percent above the Ontario and national medians, respectively (see Table 5). While there are many factors influencing modal choice, numerous studies suggest that higher car ownership responds strongly to rising incomes. This may partly explain why in Ajax the rate of car ownership is 20 percent higher than the GTHA. In 2011, there were 1.8 vehicles per household in Ajax, compared to 1.5 per household in the GHTA as a whole5.

Table 5. Median total income of households in 20156 Area Population Median Household Income ($) Town of Ajax 119,677 96,945 Ontario 13,448,494 74,287 Canada 35,151,728 70,336

Ajax residents enjoy many employment opportunities. According to the 2016 Census, around 92 percent of the labour force (approximately 61,900 people) is employed. Most common occupations are related to sales and services (~24 percent), business and administration (~19 percent), along with trades and transportation (~13 percent). Furthermore, most of the employed labour force works in industries related to retail, health/social care, and finance/insurance with 11, 10, and 10 percent, respectively. Many of these industries and occupations rely on efficient supply-chains and transportation logistics, which is why it is important to make sure the transportation network supports their performance.

2.4 Existing mobility characteristics

The Town of Ajax supports an inter-connected multi-modal road network. The system of roads, multi-use trails, sidewalks and cycling facilities accommodate trips from residential nodes to employment, commercial, and recreational destinations. This section analyzes modal split and trip volume origin-destination data.

2.4.1 Modal split

Modal split is a useful indicator to show the proportion of people or trips using a certain mode of transportation to travel. Two known primary sources provide this information: 1) Main mode of commuting for the employed labour force provided every 5 years by the Census (see Figure 6); and 2) Number of trips by mode, source of origin/destination 7 , and time of day provided every 5 years by University of Toronto’s Transportation for Tomorrow Survey (TTS). (see Figure 7).

13

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

While results between sources may slightly vary due to the nature of the unit of measure (people versus trips, respectively) and the sample population that qualified for the survey, overall trends remain consistent. As observed in Figure 6, in 2016 approximately 74 percent of the employed commuters still relied on single- occupancy vehicles to go to work. This is similar to the TTS data depicted in Figure 7 which indicates that all-day inbound, outbound and internal trips on this mode corresponds to 71 percent, with a spike of 74 percent, respectively, during the afternoon peak period (16:00 – 19:00). The most striking but positive fluctuation in this mode happens in the morning peak period (6:00 – 9:00) where single occupancy vehicle share decreases to 67 percent.

In terms of carpooling, according to the Census data, the trend in time from 2006 to 2016 shows that the share decreased from 8 to 6 percent, respectively. Although percentage totals vary, this decreasing trend is consistent with TTS data where all-day inbound and outbound carpool trip share declined from 17 to 15 percent in the same 10-year period. Nevertheless, both Census and all-day TTS data show that the 2016 modal share in private vehicles as driver and passenger account together between 80 – 86 percent of the modal split.

Transit shows the most variation among data sources during different times of the day. While the Census reports that transit is an important mode for employed commuters with 17 percent of the share; TTS data only suggests that it adds to 8 percent of all-day trips (Durham Region Transit, GO Transit or a combination of the two). This percentage share is higher during both morning (9 percent) and afternoon (10 percent) commuting periods.

Walking and cycling have yet to play a significant commuting mode as only 3 percent of commuters seem to utilize these modes according to the 2016 Census data. TTS trip data suggests that cycling and walking play a more significant role, as all-day trips account 4 percent of the of mode share and climb up to 7 percent during the morning peak period (6:00 – 9:00). The latter could be explained by internal trips made walking and cycling to school during the day (which is not accounted in the Census employed commuter data). Conversely, the evening peak period shows a substantial decline in this mode (2 percent). It is also noteworthy that TTS school bus trips conform most of the “Other” category during the morning peak period, and so it adds to 4 percent of trips.

2.4.2 Trip volumes

The most recent TTS data (2016) suggests that approximately 288,900 trips are made in Ajax in one typical weekday. These include trips from Ajax to other neighboring regional municipalities including Durham, York, Peel, and Toronto; and vice versa. The all-day volume distribution of inbound, outbound, and internal trips remains even (33, 34, and 33 percent, respectively). Two important peaks occur in the morning (7:30 – 8:30) and afternoon (16:30 – 17:30); these two periods are when the transportation network hosts the most number of trips in all modes, especially outbound trips in the morning (41 percent) and inbound trips in the afternoon (52 percent). Internal trips in the morning peak hour are nearly double to those in the afternoon counterpart. Table 6 and Figure 8 summarize these findings.

Inbound, outbound, and internal trips in Ajax - 20169 Total trips Total trips Direction Total trips (all day) (morning peak hour: 7:30 – (afternoon peak hour: 16:30 – 8:30) 17:30) Inbound 96,200 6,300 14,600 (exc. internal) Outbound 96,500 13,100 7,200 (exc. internal) Ajax Internal 96,200 12,300 6,100 TOTAL 288,900 31,700 27,900

52% 26% 41% 34%

2.4.3 Trip origin and destination

Transportation trips are cyclical, and their origin and destination generally respond to commuting patterns. The afternoon peak hour (16:30 – 17:30), as illustrated in Figure 8, shows the highest number of trips in one direction (14,600 - 52 percent). This suggest that this is probably the busiest time of the network for commuters heading back to Ajax. These trips start at different origins and their volumes are depicted in Figure 9. The greatest attractor of trips corresponds to Toronto (excluding downtown) with 32 percent of inbound trips, followed by Downtown Toronto (16 percent), and Pickering (14 percent).

16

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

Figure 9. Afternoon peak hour (16:30 -17:30) inbound trip volumes -2016

2.4.4 Commute duration

During a typical weekday, Ajax experiences approximately 35,000 outbound trips between 6:00 – 9:00, and 34,000 inbound between 16:00 – 19:00. These likely represent the two “commuter waves”, respectively, with an expected higher commuting-time duration since the nature of the trips implies crossing the Town’s boundaries. As illustrated by Figure 10, in 2016 only 38 percent of employed commuters had travelled under 30 minutes, compared to 56 percent in Ontario as a whole. Meanwhile, more than one in four (26 percent) of all commutes lasted an hour or more, compared to just 12 percent for Ontario. This may imply planning to leave for work at an earlier hour than other Ontarians, which explains why one in three Ajax commuters (29 percent) leave for work before 7 a.m., while for Ontario this ratio was closer to 24 percent. Commuting duration and time leaving work is relevant as they are variables influencing the quality of life of residents. As indicated in Ajax’s TDM Plan on commute perceptions, most respondents said they would like more time with family, less stress, more free time and spend less on travel10.

2.5 Existing transportation networks

This section summarizes the existing network of roads, routes, and facilities of Ajax’s multi-modal transportation network. These are divided according to travel mode and the corresponding main features have been highlighted.

2.5.1 Active transportation network

Ajax is recognized as a leader in Durham Region both in the quantity and quality of active transportation facilities provided. The Town’s existing active transportation network consists of pedestrian sidewalks, multi-use trails, multi-use paths, cycle tracks, buffered bike lanes, bike lanes, and shared facilities. Ajax’s multi-use trail corridors include Duffins Creek, Millers Creek, Carruthers Creek and the Lake Ontario waterfront. For a detailed review of cycling and pedestrian facility types by kilometres covered, please refer to Section 2.6.1. The Town’s current Official Plan states that sidewalks be provided on both sides of new roads greater than 300 metres in length within the urban boundary; and on one side where roads are less than 300 metres in length. Furthermore, the plan stipulates that road widenings and new road construction projects include provision for cycle tracks, on-street bicycle lanes, and multi-use trails within the boulevard where appropriate.

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

2.5.2 Transit network

Local and regional transit services in Ajax are provided by Durham Region Transit (DRT) and GO Transit. The Ajax GO Station provides connections between DRT bus routes operating locally and the GO Rail Lakeshore East line and GO feeder bus services. DRT bus services include 13 routes that operate in the Town including the “PULSE” bus-rapid high-frequency line that runs on Kingston Road/Highway 2 between downtown Oshawa and Pickering, with continuing service to Scarborough. Ajax’s transit network is depicted in Figure 12.

Local transit service provides a critical element of the transportation system in the Town of Ajax. Many residents in Ajax utilize this sustainable mode of transportation in their daily commutes and trips. Continued improvements to this service will help achieve municipal and regional mode share targets and support the vision for a sustainable future. Continuing to identify transit improvements in conjunction with walking and cycling improvements will help strengthen the connection between these sustainable transportation modes and allow residents to understand their local and regional transportation options.

The Durham Regional Official Plan identifies a Transit Priority Network. This network is responsible for providing inter-municipal transit service. The Highway 2 / Kingston Road Rapid Transit Spine provides regional east-west service with high projected ridership beyond 2031. It connects municipalities, regional centres and major employment and population nodes. Coordinating regional and local municipalities’ planning and implementation process to protect the right-of-way for future BRT service is outlined in the Durham Region Official Plan.

A High Frequency Network is also identified in the Transit Priority Network. By 2031, this network is expected to consist of transit vehicles operating in High Occupancy Vehicle lanes and shared lanes with transit frequencies of 10 minutes or less in the peak hours. Roads in Ajax that are identified on this network include Taunton Road, Rossland Road, Westney Road (from Bayly Street to Highway 407), Harwood Avenue (from Bayly Street to Kingston Road) and Bayly Street.

The above Transit Priority Network is characterized in the Regional Official Plan with Policy 11.3.18, which outlines that development adjacent to Transit Spines and the High Frequency Network shall provide for:

► Complementary higher density and mixed uses at an appropriate scale and context in accordance with Policy 8A.2.9; ► Buildings oriented towards the street, to reduce walking distances to transit facilities; ► Facilities which support non-auto modes including: drop off facilities, bus bays, bus loop, bus shelters, walkways, trails and other pedestrian and cycling facilities; and ► Limited surface parking and the potential redevelopment of existing surface parking.

2.5.3 Road network

Ajax’s road network includes a Provincial Highway (401), arterial road types A, B, and C, collector and local roads. The road network in the Town is shown in Figure 13. A succinct description of each road class and jurisdiction can be found in Table 7 and Table 8, respectively. When planning and designing proposed Town roads, consideration should be given to protecting space requirements within the right-of-way for future transit facilities including transit stops and connections to them. As new growth areas are identified in the Town, staff will communicate this information with Durham Region Transit so that they are able to plan for future service enhancements to service these areas as appropriate.

Note 3: Harwood Avenue from Kingston Road to Lake Ontario was transferred from the Region to the Town in 2012.

2.5.4 Goods movement

The Town supports goods movement by working with the Region to promote designated truck routes and goods movement corridors. In the Region’s 2017 TMP, there are three Regional roads in Ajax which are part of the Region’s Strategic Goods Movement Corridor. They include Taunton Road, Bayly Street, and Lake Ridge Road.

Bayly Street is a key east-west arterial road through the Town of Ajax. It travels directly through the Town’s Downtown, which is a unique area where development is intended to be compact, urban, intensive, mixed-use, transit-supportive, pedestrian-oriented and accessible. Working with the Region, the Town will work to ensure

23

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0 the vision and goals for Downtown Ajax are not hampered by the designation of Bayly Street as a goods movement corridor.

The Town is also a stakeholder in the environmental assessments that the Ministry of Transportation is undertaking regarding widening, long-term rehabilitation and operational needs of the Highway 401 corridor through Ajax.

2.6 Current multi-modal operations

This section addresses the existing transportation facilities within the Town, covering active transportation, transit and the road network.

2.6.1 Existing active transportation facilities review

Recent initiatives Since completing the 2013 Transportation Master Plan and the 2010 Pedestrian and Bicycle Master Plan, the Town of Ajax has implemented a number of initiatives to help encourage more users to engage in active forms of travel and recreation. The following section provides a summary of the Town’s successes related to the promotion and outreach of active transportation and recreation in Ajax. Bicycle Friendly Community In 2010, the Town was awarded a Bicycle Friendly Community Bronze designation from Share the Road Cycling Coalition. In 2017, this designation was upgraded to a Silver award (see Figure 14). In 2018, the Town was a funding partner of the 2018 Cycling Survey run by Share the Road Cycling Coalition. This survey is an important study which highlights public support and demand for improved cycling conditions in Ontario. Figure 14. Town of Ajax Bicycle Friendly award

Bike This Way Pilot Project The pilot is a wayfinding project intended to help cyclists navigate between downtown Ajax and Ajax GO Station. The key goals of the pilot project are to: encourage active travel between downtown Ajax and Ajax GO Station; reduce greenhouse gas emission and traffic congestion; and improve the visibility of the cycling network and educate drivers to share the road with cyclists. Examples of the wayfinding signage and illustrated in Figure 15.

Figure 15. Wayfinding signage in Ajax

24

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

#GetAjaxMoving #GetAjaxMoving is the Town’s transportation awareness campaign intended to provide residents with information they need to walk and cycle around Ajax. As part of the initiative, a set of toolkits and resources were developed for different transportation modes and travel considerations including walking, biking, transit, carpooling, telecommuting, and school and winter travel. Examples of the toolkits are depicted in Figure 16. Several outreach events have also been undertaken by Town staff to promote active transportation including Bike to School Week, Winter Walk Day and Walktober. Figure 16. #GetAjaxMoving toolkits for walking and biking

Trail Etiquette The Town has implemented a number of signs along the Waterfront Trail to inform users of proper and safe use along the off-road trails. There are currently 11 locations along the Waterfront Trail that contain Trail Etiquette signs. The signs include information to remind users to keep right, slow down to pass, give audible warning, control speeds, keep dogs on minimal leash length and to be courteous. A sample of the Trail Etiquette sign that is implemented along the Waterfront Trail is displayed in Figure 17.

Active and Safe Routes to School Figure 17. Sample of trail etiquette sign The Town has undertaken the Active and Safe Routes to School program to encourage students to engage in active forms of travel such as walking and cycling. As part of this initiative, a manual was created as a resource to guide teachers and school administrations to establish an Active and Safe Routes to school program. The manual provides guidance on how to set up the program, potential events / initiatives and next steps. A sample of the manual is illustrated in Figure 18. The Town promotes annual town- wide active school travel campaigns that encourage schools to collect data on how students get to/from school. In 2018 the Town started working with four schools in town to Figure 18. Sample of the Ajax Active and Safe Routes develop personalized School Travel Plans. to School Manual

Facilities review

The Town’s existing active transportation network includes facilities to accommodate pedestrians, cycling and multi-use purposes. In total, there are 582.9 kilometres of existing active transportation routes. The network is comprised of approximately 187.7 kilometres of cycling and multi-use facilities and approximately 395.2 kilometres of pedestrian facilities. Table 9 summarizes facility types and total lengths by their respective facility class.

2.6.2 Transit operations review

Recent initiatives

Transit services in Ajax, provided by Durham Region Transit (DRT) and GO Transit, have recently seen numerous changes and improvements. In June 2013, through Metrolinx and Durham Region funding, DRT launched its Enhanced Bus Rapid Transit service PULSE on Highway 2 connecting the University of Toronto (Scarborough Campus) to Downtown Oshawa (see Figure 20). The route serves Ajax and includes a 1.1 km exclusive lane from east of Salem Road to west of Harwood Avenue. Constant improvements in other bus routes have followed in 2017, such as the added changes to Routes 225 and 915 in the Town to provide 30-minute or better headway service. These routes intersect with the PULSE line which also offers 30-minutes or better frequencies on a 20- hour daily basis, with 10-min or better headways during weekday peak and mid-day periods. Additionally, Durham Transit also recently widened Bayly Street for improved bus service on this major corridor.

Figure 20. Recently introduced Bus Rapid Transit service PULSE11

Ajax’s GO Station services have also seen numerous improvements. Since 2013, new facilities have been implemented including a parking structure with approximately 1,300 parking spaces, a “kiss-and-ride” lot, and a snow-melting system at the platform and bus shelters. Furthermore, Ajax’s GO Rail station began generating solar power in 201412, becoming one of Metrolinx’s four stations that together generate 1,000 kW annually. In 2017, a new pedestrian bridge at Ajax GO Station was opened connecting the north and south parking lots over Fairall Street, benefiting pedestrians and enhancing overall access for motorists as well.

Transit signal priorities are currently being considered and evaluated along the Kingston Road / Highway 2 corridor. This technology is intended to improve local and regional transit wait times and could serve to inform the implementation of the technology at other key locations, such as the area surrounding the Ajax GO Station.

Operations review

In 2016, Ajax recorded approximately 21,800 daily transit trips13. This number includes all inbound, outbound, and internal transit trips made in different transit modes including GO Train, local transit (DRT), and joint trips which include a mixture of both. As seen in Figure 21, between 2006 and 2011 transit trips increased by around 50 percent, but the next five-year survey period showed a small decrease of 8 percent. This trend is consistent with 28

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0 overall DRT ridership data which also saw a decrease in 2015-2016 as a result of a teacher’s strike that impacted student demand during April and May of 2016, as well as some significant route changes and a fare increase14.

The highest percentage increase between these transit modes was in GO Rail trips between 2006 and 2011, with a 60 percent jump from approximately 4,600 to 7,500 trips; in 2016, this number dropped to 5,900 trips. Likewise, between 2008 and 2013, boardings at Ajax Station grew by 32 percent - a much higher figure when compared to neighbouring counterparts Whitby (25 percent) and Oshawa (21 percent)15. Local transit continues to be the preferred transit mode among more than half of Ajax transit users, likely due to its coverage and since over 80 percent of dwellings in Ajax are within 400 metres or less to a transit stop (see Figure 22). In this sense, local transit in this period increased its transit share from 47 to 52 percent. In this regard, GO Train daily trips decreased from 30 to 27 percent. It is important to acknowledge that while the number of transit trips has grown in Ajax between 2006 - 2016, the travel market share of transit, as a percentage of all trips has remained the same, with 10 percent of the overall modal share during the morning commute period of 6:00 – 9:0016.

In terms of rail operations, there are 41 weekday trips in the GO Rail Service along the Lakeshore East line that run from downtown Oshawa to and 39 weekday trips in the opposite direction. The Lakeshore East line (see Figure 23) is the second most heavily used inter-regional rail line in the GTHA, carrying 52,000 passengers on an average weekday in 2014. In 2016, Ajax GO Station alone was origin and/or destination station to approximately 5,900 trips19. This suggests that more people use rail transit to work outside Ajax than people who take rail to work in the Town. According to GO Rail Station Access Plan, current station access mode split includes walking (4 percent), riding local transit (18 percent), cycling (1 percent), pick-up/drop-off (15 percent), “park and ride” (55 percent), and carpooling (5 percent).

2.6.3 Travel demand model

The Region’s travel demand model that was prepared as part of the Region’s 2017 TMP was utilized to evaluate existing roadway traffic conditions specific to Ajax. The model is primarily a tool to measure capacity and any deficiencies on a north-south or east-west basis. The assessment of the road network is based on a volume to capacity (v/c) calculation, where the assumed capacity of the travel lanes is compared to the volumes of vehicles using the travel lanes. The existing conditions model specific to Ajax was validated using statistical methods, including the coefficient of determination (R2 value) and the maximum desirable percent error. For details on the model validation results, please refer to Appendix B.

Figure 24 depicts the road links in the model for Ajax and shows the current volume to capacity (v/c) of the roadway segments during the morning peak hour. When a v/c of a road segment is close to reaching 1.0, it is understood that the level of service is poor. The road links showing medium to high congestion include Highway 401 and arterial roads north of Highway 401 providing access to the highway. The model also reports congestion on links at arterial road intersections, such as where Church Street and Westney Road intersect Kingston Road. Rossland Road also exhibits congestion at various stretches. Immediately south of Highway 401, there is

31

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0 congestion on Westney Road related to access to the GO Station. Bayly Street is typically the only other street south of Highway 401 that experiences congestion. For more information on the modelling validation, methods and analysis, please refer to Section 4.2.

2.6.4 Traffic operations

Several corridors with existing traffic operational challenges were selected for detailed study as part of the ITMP, with a goal of identifying quick wins that could help alleviate congestion and improve traffic flow during peak periods. This section gives an overview of the existing levels of service of three road corridors and their respective intersections. The recommendations to optimize the operations of these key intersections are provided in Section 1.1. The analyzed corridors are in the Town’s Downtown area and the GO Station, including:

► Bayly Street West corridor;

► Harwood Avenue South corridor; and

► Westney Road South corridor.

Existing conditions overview

An intersection capacity analysis provides an indication of existing traffic operations based on calculations of volume to capacity ratios (v/c) and delays for individual movements at a specific intersection. Turning movement counts were collected in 2017 from the Town of Ajax and the Region of Durham for selected intersections along Bayly Street West, Harwood Avenue South and Westney Road South. Existing signal timing plans and phasing plans were collected from the Region of Durham for all the signalized intersections. The intersections studied for their existing level of service are shown in Table 10.

Lake Driveway (stop control)

Methods

Synchro files were created with the signal timing plans and phasing plans for the intersections studied. The turning movement counts were input into the Synchro files in order to identify operational performance of intersections in the morning (a.m.) and evening (p.m.) rush hour periods and to identify opportunities for modifications that could be made to improve the functionality of the intersections.

Level of Service (LOS) denoted by letters “A” through “D”, represent adequate traffic operations. LOS denoted by the letters “E” and “F” represent congested traffic operations. Critical movements are defined as those with a volume to capacity ratio of 0.85 or higher. Typically, an LOS of “E” or “F” or a critical movement of 0.85 or higher is identified as an issue for further study and improvement.

33

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

Bayly Street West corridor

The Bayly Street West corridor was analyzed from Westney Road South in the west to Harwood Avenue South in the east. This stretch of roadway includes many retail and offices uses. Intersections within this corridor were analyzed to assess the level of service and to identify critical movements. The analysis of morning (a.m.) and evening (p.m.) weekday peak hour conditions is summarized in Table 11 and displayed graphically in Figure 25. Detailed Synchro output sheets for each intersection in the a.m. and p.m. peak hours are provided in Appendix C.

Table 11. Existing levels of service for intersections along Bayly Street West A.M. Peak Hour P.M. Peak Hour Signalized LOS Critical Movement LOS Critical Movement Intersection (Delay in (Volume/Capacity (Delay in (Volume/Capacity Ratio) Seconds) Ratio) Seconds) EBT (1.04) NBL (0.97) Westney Rd.

Traffic volumes and intersection performance along the Bayly Street West corridor results in adequate levels of service during the a.m. peak period. However, there are multiple movements that are considered critical or theoretically over capacity during the p.m. peak period. The intersection of Bayly Street West and Mackenzie Avenue is operating at a level of service of “F” during the p.m. peak hour. The poor level of service is due to heavy through volumes along Bayly Street West that are not allowing enough gaps for the northbound traffic to execute their turns. However, given the northbound left-turn movement is still well within its capacity no changes are currently proposed at this intersection. Further study of this intersection and possible improvements are described in Section 4.4.

34

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

Figure 25. Bayly Street West intersections existing levels of service

Harwood Avenue South corridor

The Harwood Avenue South corridor was analyzed from Westney Road South in the north to Lake Driveway in the south. The land uses along this stretch of roadway are primarily residential.

Intersections within this corridor were analyzed to assess the level of service and to identify critical movements. The analysis of morning (a.m.) and evening (p.m.) weekday peak hour conditions is summarized in Table 12 and displayed graphically in Figure 26. The analysis suggests that traffic volumes and intersection performance along the Harwood Avenue South corridor results in adequate level of service during both the a.m. and p.m. peak hours, with no critical movements identified. Detailed Synchro output sheets for each intersection in the a.m. and p.m. peak hours are provided in Appendix C.

Based on public traffic perception, this corridor was identified as problematic due to the reduction of travel lanes along the corridor. However, the results indicate that the intersections are operating at adequate (LOS “D” or better) conditions. The complaints may be due to the perception and comparison between travel times of the past four-lane cross section and the present two-lane cross section. Furthermore, given the termination of the road at Lake Driveway and the typical land use around this corridor (mature residential blocks), the vehicle traffic growth along this corridor is projected to be minimal and the two-lane cross section can readily accommodate the traffic.

Westney Road South corridor

The intersection of Westney Road South and Fairall Street where the Ajax GO station entrance is located was analyzed for the a.m. and p.m. weekday peak hours. The analysis of morning and evening weekday peak hour conditions is summarized in Table 13 and displayed graphically in Figure 27. Detailed Synchro output sheets for each intersection in the morning and evening peak hours are provided in Appendix C. It should be noted that changes to this intersection were implemented in 2017 to improve the traffic flow through this intersection.

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

Typically, traffic volumes and intersection performance at Westney Road South and Fairall Street results in adequate levels of service during the p.m. peak period. Additional delay can occur around the time that an eastbound train arrives in the p.m. peak period when many passengers board buses or get into their vehicles and exit the station. Improvements made to the intersection and the circulation within the GO Station are believed to have helped to mitigate some of the capacity constraints found at this intersection during the p.m. peak period. Despite the changes, there are multiple movements (such as Westbound-through and northbound) that are considered critical or theoretically over capacity during the a.m. peak period. Further study of this intersection and possible improvements are provided in Section 4.

3.0 VISION AND STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT

3.1 Chapter overview

This chapter introduces the process that shaped the “Vision Statement” and founding principles for the ITMP. Moreover, it summarizes all the feedback received from multiple stakeholders who helped to shape this vision and inform the recommendations of the master plan. In compliance with the Phase 1 “problem / opportunity statement” of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA) process for master plans, the vision (opportunity) statement, along with the key principles, clearly indicate why the Town is undertaking this project.

3.2 Vision statement

Ajax’s transportation vision was shaped by residents, stakeholders, Town staff and decision makers. It reflects the priorities and principles that are important to the Town, in its current state and for the future. It clearly defines what the Town intends to achieve for its transportation system.

The vision of the Integrated Transportation Master Plan is to enhance the sustainable “ and multi-modal transportation system for the Town of Ajax by planning, designing, constructing and maintaining a community and transportation network that supports pedestrian, cyclists, transit and vehicular traffic. The Town’s transportation system will be accessible to all users and all modes of transportation.

” 3.3 Key principles

The vision for Ajax’s transportation future integrates four key principles:

1. Support mobility for all modes of transportation to create an accessible and efficient multi-modal transportation network.

2. Improve and maintain existing and future transportation network and infrastructure that can adapt to the Town’s future growth.

3. Improve road safety, especially to the most vulnerable groups in the mobility pyramid.

4. Enhance quality of life by promoting walking and cycling as a mechanism for active living and an effort to reduce pollution and car dependency.

3.4 Consulting and engaging with the community

3.4.1 Project launch

In November 2017, the Notice of Study Commencement was advertised on the Town’s website, announcing the formal launch of the ITMP study. The notice was also advertised in the Ajax Pickering News Advertiser and on the Town’s social media platforms, emphasizing key project milestones and engagement opportunities.

3.4.2 Promotional tools

Various tools were used to promote the study and invite stakeholders and the public to participate in the planning

process. Key messages to raise awareness and encourage active participation throughout the ITMP process s were published in the following channels:

Project Website: The URL https://www.ajax.ca/itmp was created to act as a central hub for information and updates. As part of the Town’s webpage, the page advertises upcoming events, the timeline of the project and links to online surveys. The project team emails were also provided as primary points of contact to receive questions and feedback.

Social Media: The Town’s Facebook and Twitter accounts were used to promote the online and in-person engagement opportunities. In addition to events hosted, social media was also used to increase the general awareness of the project and provide on-going updates.

Newspaper Notices: The Town published two notices in the Ajax Pickering News Advertiser to advertise and promote the ITMP study. The newspaper augmented the reach of the online social media promotion.

3.4.3 Public engagement opportunities

Various engagement opportunities were offered throughout the development of the ITMP to the public, technical agencies, steering committee, and local advisory groups. These included four stakeholder workshops, two public information open houses, and two rounds of online surveys (See Figure 28). During the whole consultation process, the Town collected approximately 1,600 data points/comments, from which 460 were referenced to a specific location within the Town boundaries. The next subsections of the report summarize and highlight all the feedback and input received during these consultation rounds. These findings together with the technical analysis were vital in steering the multi-modal transportation recommendations provided in Chapter 4.

For a detailed overview of engagement dates and milestones, please refer to Section 1.7.4. For detailed comment- tracking, please refer to Appendix A. The following subsections summarize the findings for each engagement round.

3.4.4 Engagement round 1 summary

The first round of engagement was held between November 2017 and February 2018. This engagement round sought to receive input on the future transportation vision for Ajax in terms of challenges and opportunities. Multiple activities were held to identify these challenges and opportunities according to specific transportation modes as well as to solicit suggestions on how to improve the connectivity, integration, accessibility, and multi- modality of the network. The Town received over 615 data points and/or comments, from which approximately 300 were geolocated on a map of the Town.

41

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

Working vision

To gain feedback on the working vision, an exercise was undertaken to identify key recurring themes to then classify them according to mode of transportation and specific topic. Approximately 310 written comments were collected and a “word cloud” was created to illustrate the most common words that were used. As seen in Figure 29, the most prevalent themes revolve around “buses”, “roads” and “bikes”, as well as “traffic”, “safety”, and “trails”. From a high-level analysis, these themes are indicative of where challenges or opportunities for the transportation network are perceived by respondents of the study.

Figure 29. Word cloud of key themes processed from approximately 310 comments

As part of this activity, participants were encouraged to provide feedback on how travel in Ajax can be improved from the present to the year 2041. These ideas were grouped into four categories: walking and cycling, driving/carpooling, riding transit and other travel ideas. Figure 30 depicts the number of ideas or comments received distributed by mode of transportation and Figure 31 breaks these down into specific transportation topics or issue class. The top two topics identified by participants were related to operation/service (18 percent) and supporting infrastructure/end-trip facilities (13 percent). Around 60 percent of the comments related to the operation/service alluded to transit operation, while around 45 percent of the comments related to supporting infrastructure/end-trip facilities alluded to walking and cycling.

3.4.5 Engagement round 2 summary

The second round of engagement sought to understand cycling facilities preferences, budget allocation preferences as well as feedback on the roads and active transportation phasing and implementation strategy. During this round, the Town received over 1,000 data points and/or comments, from which approximately 160 referenced a specific location within the Town. For detailed comment-tracking, please refer to Appendix A. The following subsections summarize the findings for each of these components.

Cycling facility type preferences

Figure 36 illustrates the data collected from approximately 80 participants who provided insight on cycling facility type preferences in Ajax. For designated cycling facilities, approximately half (49 percent) of the respondents preferred buffered bike lanes. For separated facilities, a closely even percentage of participants preferred either off-road trails or multi-use paths (in-boulevard trails). For shared facilities, the signed bike route with edge-lines was preferred (64 percent). While a general assumption may suggest cyclists feel safer and most comfortable riding on facilities with the greatest degree of separation and protection from cars, it may not necessarily apply to all contexts. For example, while an off-road trail offers the greatest protection from other motorized vehicular traffic, it is not always the most direct route and may be require higher maintenance due to proximity to natural vegetation and falling foliage.

Budget allocation preferences

Figure 37 summarizes the data collected from approximately 60 participants who shared transportation budget allocation preferences in Ajax. Each participant was given the same quantity of symbolic coins (10) representing the allowed budget to spend. Resources to road improvements, road maintenance, and traffic calming correspond to 26, 19, and 15 percent of the total budget allocated by participants, respectively. It is worth noting that cycling and pedestrian infrastructure improvements add to around 23 percent of the budget allocated, suggesting its importance among investments priorities.

Phasing and implementation feedback

A third exercise was conducted to elicit feedback on the proposed AT and road improvements implementation strategy. This input guided the phasing planning (short-, medium-, and long- term) for the proposed projects detailed in Chapter 5. Approximately 160 comments were collected to inform the implementation strategy of the ITMP Figure 38 and Figure 39 illustrate, respectively, the AT and road improvement priorities marked by respondents. The main findings of this analysis are highlighted in textboxes.

4.0 RECOMMENDATIONS

4.1 Chapter overview

Ajax’s ITMP has been prepared using a holistic multi-modal approach that considers the interaction of non- motorized and motorized modes of transportation within a single transportation system. This chapter presents the recommendations for future infrastructure and operation improvements of active transportation and road works as well as the supporting policies that will continue to work towards enhanced safety, multi-modality, and resilience towards future mobility trends.

The chapter is divided into five subsections. First, it presents the future proposed active transportation network highlighting up-to-date standards for design and maintenance of its facilities. Second, the road network travel demand model results are examined with the corresponding alternatives analysis that led to the preferred future road network scenario. Third, recommendations are provided for three key traffic corridors to enhance their future operation. Fourth, recommendations related to six supporting policies are developed including: continuing with Complete Streets; improving multi-modal transportation; strengthening transportation demand management (TDM); enhancing road safety through Vision Zero; preparing for new mobility technologies; and introducing Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). This chapter carefully considers input received from all stakeholders and combines this with technical analysis, staff knowledge, and best practice experience to create tailor-made recommendations for the Town of Ajax. Finally, this chapter will review the existing road network classification to determine if any roads were not operating consistent tot heir intended classification.

4.2 Future active transportation network

4.2.1 Active transportation strategy

A comprehensive Active Transportation Strategy was developed to build upon the Town’s 2010 Ajax Pedestrian and Bicycle Master Plan and the 2013 Transportation Master Plan. The Strategy provides an integrated and holistic approach when planning, designing and implementing active transportation as part of the Town’s overall transportation network.

The Active Transportation Strategy was developed using a four-stage process. This process was informed by the input collected from Town staff, stakeholders, technical agencies and members of the public. The Strategy is intended to be used as a reference for Town staff when addressing the future planning, design and implementation of active transportation, and the overall integration of active travel modes into the Town’s transportation network. Figure 40 illustrates the process used to develop Ajax’s Active Transportation Strategy, and the sections within the ITMP that contain additional details on each phase.

4.2.2 The active transportation development process

The process used to update the Town’s active transportation network builds upon the approach identified in the 2010 Pedestrian and Bicycle Master Plan, while also taking into consideration current trends and existing guidelines such as Ontario Traffic Manual (OTM) Book 18: Cycling Facilities, OTM Book 15: Pedestrian Crossings and the MTO Bikeways Design Manual. The process used to update the Town’s active transportation network was iterative and consisted of five steps, each informed by the input collected from Town staff, stakeholders, technical agencies and members of the public. Table 14 outlines each step of the network development process and the outcome of each step. Additional details and the outcomes of each step are documented in the following sections.

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

Step 1: Map existing and planned conditions

Information and spatial data was collected from the Town to develop a GIS database of existing and previously planned active transportation conditions in Ajax. The database also included relevant information related to land use, transportation features and infrastructure in Ajax. The database was updated on an on-going basis to reflect new information, input received and the overall iterative approach of the network development process.

Figure 41 illustrates the existing and previously planned active transportation routes in Ajax. In total, there are 582.9 km of existing routes and 78.4 km of previously planned routes. The Town’s existing and previously planned network includes pedestrian facilities (such as sidewalks), cycling facilities (such as bike lanes and shared facilities) and routes intended for multi-use purposes (such as multi-use paths and off-road trails). The following is a more detailed description of the various elements that make up the Town’s active transportation network:

Regional Routes: These routes form direct north-south and east-west connections through Ajax. Regional routes typically facilitate long distance travel, utilitarian trips and link to surrounding municipalities. Key regional routes that form part of the Town’s active transportation network include Bayly Street (Regional Road 22), Kingston Road (Highway 2), Taunton Road (Regional Road 4), Westney Road (Regional Road 31), Salem Road (Regional Road 41), Church Street south of Highway 401 (Regional Road 24) and Lake Ridge Road (Regional Road 23). Typically, these routes feature a multi-use path on one side of the road with a sidewalk on the other side. In the existing network, some areas have sidewalks on both sides of

the road while other areas have not been fully urbanized and therefore the sidewalk or multi-use path have not been installed yet.

Significant Trail Systems: There are three significant trail systems in Ajax including the Waterfront Trail, the Great Trail (formerly the Trans Canada Trail) and the Province-wide cycling network. These trail systems provide opportunities for users of all ages and abilities to engage in daily forms active transportation and recreation. These trails also facilitate regional travel as they connect the Town to surrounding municipalities.

Local Trails: There are a number of existing local off-road trails, including the Duffins Creek, Millers Creek and Carruthers Creek trails, which provide access to neighbourhoods and communities through the natural and open spaces of Ajax. These routes are typically implemented in the Town’s urban and suburban areas, including parks or linear corridors within Ajax. Local trails provide opportunities for residents to engage in recreational activities within their neighbourhood and

promote active travel within the Town. Key Destinations: Connections to key community destinations such as Ajax GO station, Conservation Areas, schools, parks, community centres, and recreation centres can help increase the desirability for users to engage in active travel for a variety of purposes such as commuting, leisure, health and fitness.

53

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

Figure 41. Existing and previously proposed active transportation routes

54

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

Step 2: Route selection criteria

Route evaluation and selection is supported by a set of criteria that are intended to reflect the desired outcomes of the active transportation network. These criteria are meant to help achieve the Town’s overall transportation vision (see section 3.2) and future priorities for active transportation. They are also consistent with the principles outlined in existing planning and engineering guidelines such as OTM Book 18, as well as best practices from studies of similar scope and scale.

These criteria were used over the course of the network development process to consider, review and ultimately confirm the preferred routes and facility types for the Town’s active transportation network. The following criteria and questions were used to assess each route.

Access and Does the route connect to significant Town or local neighbourhood destinations? Potential Use

Connectivity and Does the route allow users to travel long distances and / or provide a direct Directness connection to key destinations in the Town?

Integration with Does the route provide access to other transportation modes? other travel modes

Environmental Does the route have minimal impacts on natural features? Does the route Protection consider the impact of natural hazards (such as flooding and erosion hazards)?

Attractiveness / Does the route offer scenic value that enriches the experience? Aesthetics

Does the route reduce potential conflict for all users? Does the route appeal to

Safety and Comfort users of varying ages and abilities?

Cost Do the benefits offset the cost to implement the route?

Tourism Does the route support local and regional tourism initiatives?

Does the route provide opportunities to support different experiences, user

Diverse groups, and trip types such as commuter or recreational?

55

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

Step 3: Identify missing links

Gaps in the existing and previously planned active transportation network were assessed to identify locations for potential new candidate routes. Based on input received from Town staff, stakeholders and residents, as well as the application of the route selection criteria, candidate routes (including on and off-road connections) were identified. The candidate routes were further investigated to confirm their appropriateness within the Town’s active transportation network.

Potential candidate routes were identified and reviewed based on their ability to:

► Connect to regional transit hubs such as GO Transit and Durham Region Transit. ► Facilitate direct north-south and east-west connections. ► Provide direct access to schools, key community destinations and areas of employment. ► Connect to regional trail systems. ► Enhance opportunities to engage in commuter travel. ► Increase connectivity to surrounding municipalities. ► Provide access to parks including lands owned and operated by the Conservation Authority.

Figure 43 highlights these factors that were considered when selecting candidate active transportation routes.

Step 4: Confirm preferred routes

The selection of preferred active transportation routes was refined based on the outcomes of steps 1 to 3 of the network development process, and input received from the public, stakeholders and Town staff. Figure 44 illustrates the preferred active transportation routes. The preferred active transportation routes are organized into the following categories:

Off-Road or In-Boulevard Facility

On-Road Facility

Sidewalk

● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● Desired Connection

The active transportation network was further assessed to select the most appropriate facility type for each preferred route. These results of this assessment are outlined in step 5.

Step 5: Confirm facility types

Based on the preferred active transportation network (see step 4), the OTM Book 18 three-step facility selection tool was applied to identify the preferred facility type for each on-road route. Both existing and previously proposed routes were assessed to determine the appropriate facility type. The three-step process is illustrated in Figure 45 and contains the following steps:

► Assess operating speed and traffic volumes to predetermine a level of separation (step 1). ► Review detailed contextual considerations (step 2). ► Document the rationale that supports the facility type recommendation (step 3).

Routes located outside of the road right-of-way (such as off-road trails and sidewalks) were assessed to address pedestrian connectivity and missing gaps. Missing off-road links were identified based on:

► Input provided by Town staff, stakeholders and members of the public. ► Capital budgets / future planned projects. ► Route selection criteria. ► ITMP objectives. ► Route specific conditions and context. ► Best practices and principles identified in existing guidelines including OTM Book 18: Cycling Facilities and Book 15: Pedestrian Crossings.

Figure 47 illustrates the proposed active transportation network by facility types. Figure 47 illustrates that Church Street will be closed to vehicle traffic and will be maintained as a multi-use connection to Greenwood Conservation Area. A summary of the facility types is provided in Table 15. In total, there are 71 kilometres of proposed active transportation routes in Ajax. As a result of step 5, there are a number of previously proposed routes that have been identified as locations to upgrade the facility type. The proposed upgrades are intended to reflect the current conditions of the route location that have evolved since the initial facility type recommendation. These recommendations also align with proposed road improvements detailed in Section 4.3. A summary of these recommended upgrades is outlined in Table 16

► Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act – Built Environment Standards

In addition to the abovementioned guidelines and standards, local resources should also be used to guide the design of active transportation facility types within the Town of Ajax and complement these existing guidelines which include:

► Town of Ajax Engineering Design Criteria and Standard Drawings

► Town of Ajax Urban Design and Built Form Guidelines for Pickering Village

► Town of Ajax Employment Areas Urban Design Guidelines

Consideration should also be given to designing and implementing design features that help to increase a user’s sense of comfort and encourage increased use of active transportation infrastructure. The following sections provide an overview of key design elements that should be considered when planning and implementing the active transportation network.

Transitions

In order to enhance connectivity, users of all ages and abilities should be able to transition between facilities and cross conflict points safely and comfortably. Without appropriate transitions from one facility type to another, it may discourage people from selecting certain mode choices like walking or cycling or from using certain routes. Common conflict areas include intersections and cross-section changes such as narrow cross-sections, existing on- street parking, and distribution of the travel lanes. People often select their route based on level of comfort and experience using the facility type. The following are examples of different design treatments that can be applied to improve a user’s ability to cross a roadway or transition between facility types more comfortably and safely.

Bike Boxes

A bike box is a designated area between the crosswalk and the stop bar that is meant to be used by cyclists while waiting for a signal to change. This allows cyclists to wait ahead of queuing traffic during the red signal phase at an intersection. The bike box is intended to increase a cyclist’s visibility for motorists and allows cyclists to proceed ahead of motorists on the green traffic signal. The bike box can also extend across the entire intersection enabling cyclists to transition from the right side of the roadway to the left in order to make a left turn movement rather than weaving through motorized traffic.

Figure 48 provides examples of where bike boxes have been installed in other municipalities in Ontario.

Pavement Markings Pavement markings are visual cues which increase awareness of the presence of cyclists on the road. Pavement markings can be used to provide cyclists with a space to use when going through an intersection or transitioning to another facility. Markings can include lines to designate the space, stencils of pedestrians and cyclists, or sharrows.

Throughout the Town, green coloured pavement has been implemented along cycling facilities and at the approach to intersections. Green coloured pavement is used to highlight potential conflict zones, clearly mark the designated space for cyclists and to generally make motorists aware of their presence. In addition, crossing treatments such as cross-rides have been implemented throughout the Town. Cross-rides allow cyclists to bike through an intersection without having to dismount and walk.

Figure 49 illustrates an example of green coloured pavement and a cross-ride in Ajax.

Accessibility

Today, there are more than 3.8 million Canadians with some form of a disability, and the numbers are growing. In Canada, and all around the world, people with disabilities face social, attitudinal, and physical barriers. Approximately one in seven Canadians have a disability and that number will rise to one in five by 2036. The Integrated Accessibility Standards Regulation (IASR), created under the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA), applies to all organizations in Ontario. It establishes accessibility standards, introduces requirements and establishes the compliance framework thereby increasing accessibility for all through the removal of barriers.

The Accessibility Standards for the Design of Public Spaces (DOPS) applies to pathways, trails and sidewalks. The intent is to help remove barriers to buildings and outdoor spaces. The standard only applies to new construction and significant renovation and is not mandatory for the design of on-road cycling facilities. Nevertheless, when designing and implementing off-road cycling facilities and multi-use trails, reference should be made to Part VI.1 of the DOPS standard to ensure that they are met. Sections 80.9 to 80.13 and 80.23 to 80.29 of the DOPS standard provide the technical requirements for multi-use recreational trails and exterior pathways (sidewalks).

For all projects, the AODA requirements should be met to the greatest extent possible. However, it is important to note that this may not be possible in all proposed locations within the network. Specifically, for trails, one must take into consideration the context of each trail, including but not limited to; the location, the surrounding environment, and the type of trail experience that is desired. In some locations it may not be possible to implement an accessible trail. In these cases, the Town should provide sufficient information to all potential users to make them aware of the conditions and the expected experience. These exceptions to the technical requirements can be found in sections 80.14,80.15 and 80.30 of the DOPS standard.

Signage and wayfinding

A connected and continuous active transportation network requires signage for a variety of purposes. The Ajax “Bike This Way” signage program was developed to help cyclists navigate from Downtown Ajax to the GO station. At part of the program, signage has been installed along Fairall Street, Dowty Road, Station Street, Hunt Street and Monarch Avenue as alternatives routes to Westney Road and Bayly Street. The signage provides information including the length in kilometres to key destinations such as the Ajax GO Station or Town Hall, and the approximate amount of time to the destination. Figure 52 illustrates some of the signage installed throughout Ajax. It is recommended that wayfinding for distance to exchanges and transit hubs be included in future wayfinding signage.

Figure 52. Ajax's ‘Bike this Way’ signage program27

The Town is currently completing the Active Transportation Wayfinding Strategy. This project builds on the “Bike This Way” signage program and involves the establishment of a comprehensive wayfinding strategy, which includes the design and location of information and direction signage, for the Town’s entire active transportation network. The strategy will provide clear and concise information to all active transportation users to effectively orient themselves along facilities in the Town. The project is estimated to be completed and presented to Council for endorsement in 2019.

69

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

In addition to the Town’s branded signage program, regulatory signage must be installed along the active transportation network to indicate traffic laws for all road users. Table 18 provides an overview of the proposed signs to be implemented as part of the active transportation network in Ajax.

Access to transit

The integration of supportive active transportation facilities at transit hubs, such as secure bike parking, and connections between active transportation facilities and transit routes is a critical component to support multi- modal travel. Walking and cycling can be a cost-effective way to complete a user’s first or last mile of a trip, and when combined with transit, it can reach farther distances and create greater access. All Durham Region Transit (DRT) busses are equipped with a bike rack that can hold up to two bikes. In addition, Ajax GO station has sheltered bicycle parking facilities to support the needs of cyclists.

It is recommended that as the Town’s active transportation network is implemented, consideration be given to connect facilities to existing and planned transit routes and /or stops. For example, in locations where a cycling route crosses a bus bay, buses would be required to cross the facility to access the bus bay (curbside). Where no bus bay is provided, buses must maneuver up to the curb to minimize the gap where passengers board the bus thus encroaching on any curbside cycling route. In some cases, practitioners may consider incorporating the bike facility into the transit platform. For example, the bike facility can ramp up to the platform to slow cyclists and they approach the conflict area. Additional design considerations are outlined in Section 5.4.2. of OTM Book 18.

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

End-of-trip facilities

Implementing active transportation amenities at the end of a route can help to improve the overall experience and sense of comfort for users. There several types of supportive amenities and features that can be designed and implemented to help improve the user’s experience including rest areas and end-of-trip facilities.

Rest areas are designated locations along an active transportation route that provides users with a comfortable location to stop. The design of rest areas can include lighting, seating, car and bicycle parking, signage, loading and unloading areas, garbage receptacles, washrooms, amenity buildings and gates / access barriers.

End-of-trip facilities are implemented at key locations throughout the Town that are considered major destinations such as the Ajax GO station, libraries and community centres. Depending on the location, end-of-trip facilities could include showers, change rooms, bike rooms, lockers, bicycle repair stations, or other amenities.

Section 7.0 of OTM Book 18 provides design considerations and details about the different types of rest areas and end-of-trip facilities based on various land uses and building types. Rest areas and end-of-trip facilities should be provided at strategic locations in Ajax such as gathering points, attractions and destinations as well as other locations where users are expected to stop. The types of amenities and design should be considerate and reflective of context sensitive characteristics of the site and best practices.

4.2.4 AT network and infrastructure recommendations

► Implement the proposed active transportation network illustrated on Figure 47.

► Update the Town’s mapping and GIS database on an on-going basis to reflect the most up- to-date conditions and changes to the active transportation network.

► Consider the recommendations identified in Section 4.2.2 to plan, design and implement active transportation infrastructure that accommodate a range of user abilities and ages and encourage more people to engage in active form of recreation and travel.

► Refer to the design guidelines and standards indicated in Section 4.2.3 to proceed with the design and implementation of active transportation infrastructure.

► In coordination with Durham Region Transit, when feasible, upgrade and improve transit stops in Ajax to meet AODA requirements.

4.3 Future road network

4.3.1 Travel demand model approach

In compliance with Phase 2 (alternatives assessment) of the MCEA process, three future alternatives for Ajax’s road network were studied using Durham Region’s transportation model and transportation principles considering a multiple account evaluation framework. The alternatives used in the modelling analysis build upon the existing conditions of the road network (see Section 2.6.3) to the planning horizon of the year 2031 using the approved Durham Region population and employment forecasts. The development of a preferred transportation network for the year 2031 followed a three step-approach:

► Step 1. Develop assessment criteria and a framework to evaluate the proposed transportation network alternatives. The criteria should improve mobility, reduce congestion and encourage sustainability.

► Step 2. Identify a list of projects that have the potential to improve travel through the Town; and

► Step 3. Test the proposed improvements (from Step 2) using the 2031 Durham Region Transportation Planning Model (DRTPM), built in EMME software. Quantify and assess the impacts of the improvements based on criteria developed in Step 1. Based on the assessment results choose a list of projects to be implemented.

This approach was further complemented by developing an evaluation framework with key assessment criteria to examine the different road network alternatives. These criteria were grouped into three themes: “Mobility, Congestion, and Sustainability” as detailed in Table 19. These performance measures are important to provide a balanced analysis and trade-offs for which alternative is the optimal in the long term for Ajax. Each theme was used to serve as an evaluation framework for testing the performance of network alternatives.

Table 19. Travel demand model evaluation framework Themes Objectives Key Performance Measures Measures how easy it is to reach a preferred destination point. If certain links are not provided, ► Daily Vehicle Kilometers Travelled (VKT) or over-congested, it forces people to divert from Mobility ► % of total VKT on congested links their direct path, and requires them to travel longer ► Vehicle lane‐kms distances to get to their destination, which is undesirable.

4.3.2 Population and employment allocation

Population and employment data are the building blocks of the travel demand model that was utilized to evaluate the road network alternatives for Ajax. As illustrated on Table 20, the base year population and employment data was extracted from the 2011 Census while the forecasts to the year 2031 were provided by the Region of Durham. Figure 56 shows the distribution of population and employment through the Town of Ajax for the year 2031 by traffic analysis zones (TAZ).

4.3.3 Model validation

The first step before evaluating different future road network scenarios is to validate the base scenario with existing conditions data. The elements to build the existing conditions scenario included the 2011 regional roadway network and the a.m. peak hour auto demand matrix generated and provided by the Region for the Durham Region Transportation Planning Model (DRTPM), built in EMME software. Existing traffic counts were used to validate the existing conditions model performance, using the coefficient of determination (R2 value) and the maximum desirable percent error. For details on the model validation results, please refer to Appendix B.

4.3.4 Transportation scenario analysis - Alternative strategies

Three network scenarios were developed and tested using the 2031 population and employment allocations. Each road network scenario builds upon the last by adding new road improvements. Given the types of proposed roadways changes, it was determined that simply re-assigning the auto demand matrix onto a modified 2031 network was sufficient to test the three scenarios. The three road network scenarios with specific project details are indicated next in Table 21.

Table 21. Road network scenarios tested with respective road improvements Scenario Road Network Projects The following criteria were used to develop the 2031 Business As-Usual (BAU) network: ► 2011 Network ► Projects completed by 2017 ► Projects currently under construction (Region and Town roads) ► 5-year and 10-year Capital Program from the Region ► Ministry of Transportation Ontario initiatives

The following projects make up the Base Case: ► Partial interchange on Highway 401 and Lake Ridge Road Scenario 1 – ► Highway 407 East Extension (6 lanes from Brock Road to West Durham Link; and 4 lanes 2031 BAU thereafter), West Durham Link (WDL) and the East Durham Link (EDL) at 4 lanes. Interchanges Alternative #1 were modeled at Lake Ridge Road, Baldwin Street, Thickson Road, Simcoe Street, Harmony Road, Enfield Road, Regional Road 57, Darlington Clarke Townline, Highway 35/115 along Highway 407; Highway 7, Taunton Road, Kingston Road and Highway 401 along the WDL; and, Taunton Road, Highway 2 and Highway 401 along the EDL ► Bayly Street widening to 4 lanes from Shoal Point Road to Lake Ridge Road ► Lake Ridge Road widening to 4 lanes from Bayly Street to Rossland Road ► Salem Road widening to 4 lanes from Rossland Road to Taunton Road (Note: this improvement has been constructed since the 2006 transportation model network was prepared. The widening has been added to the base case network.) ► Westney Road widening to 4 lanes from Magill Drive to Taunton Road Scenario 2 is an accumulation of the 2031 Business As-Usual scenario and the following projects:

4.3.5 Scenario assessment

The model evaluation framework referred previously in Table 19 was adopted to test the performance of each scenario with system-wide network performance metrics. However, the metrics results indicated in this analysis pertain only to the road network confined within Ajax town boundaries. The daily metrics were calculated by multiplying the a.m. peak hour outputs by a factor of 10. This approach was based on the TTS trip data that showed that the a.m. peak hour represents 10 percent of the daily car traffic. Table 22 portrays these results for each of the scenarios analyzed.

Table 22. Road network model scenario performance metrics 2031 All Roads Within Ajax Themes System Metrics Scenario 1 Scenario 2 Scenario 3

* This will be used as base case

It is important to note that as new roads or lanes are added, the VKT and the VHT in the network decrease. This is to be expected, as the added roadways/lanes allow alternate routes between origins and destinations. These alternate routes can provide a direct connection between origins and destinations, or they can decrease the length of diversion, which was previously observed due to the congestion on the links.

77

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

Moreover, the mobility drastically improved between Scenario 1 and Scenario 2, with a reduction of about 30,000 vehicle-kilometres travelled on congested links with a volume to capacity > 0.9. This improvement is even more acute between Scenario 1 and Scenario 3, with a reduction of about 41,000 vehicle-kilometres.

The proposed changes have also provided a relief from congestion. Between Scenario 1 and Scenario 2 the amount of time spent (VHT) on congested links with a volume to capacity > 0.9 decreased by approximately 1,400 hours. Between Scenario 1 and Scenario 3, this same value was approximately 1,890 hours. The travel time index (TTI), which is a ratio of travel time for all network trips to the hypothetical total travel time for those trips on an uncongested network, has decreased between Scenario 1 and Scenario 2 (1.22 to 1.19) but has stayed constant when comparing Scenario 2 to Scenario 3 (1.19). Finally, the proposed improvements have also benefited transit routes. Majority of the improvements to the transit network occurred with the Scenario 2 roadway additions.

4.3.6 Preferred future road network

The data for the modelling performance metrics suggests that both Scenario 2 and 3 would result in less congested roadways when compared to Scenario 1 (Business As-Usual) 2031 horizon. Although projects proposed under Scenario 3 result in additional capacity, more alleviation to congestion and improved mobility (refer back to Table 22), they do not anticipate dramatic improvements of time savings or distance travelled compared to Scenario 2 and have a high risk of higher costs due to the type of infrastructure required31: Audley Road extension requires a flyover over Highway 401; Clements Road extension requires a crossing over Duffins Creek; and the Williamson Drive connection requires railway track grade crossing. Therefore, the preferred future road network is Scenario 2.

The network modelling assessment was complemented with further insight on challenges and opportunities tied to each potential road project for Scenarios 2 and 3 (see Table 23), where “I” represents to “Implement” a road project and “M” to “Monitor for future.” It is important to note that the Audley Road extension across Highway 401 provides a strong north-south connection between uptown-downtown Ajax, and so it is recommended to monitor traffic conditions around it in case the link is needed in a longer-term horizon (2031-beyond).

In the Region’s 2017 TMP, the Town requested that the Clements Road and Williamson Road extensions be removed from the Official Plan, but the request was rejected by the Region. A comprehensive assessment of all three projects identified to “Monitor for Future” should be completed during the next Official Plan review. The assessment should evaluate the potential improvements these connections would offer to the overall network and compare them to the costs associated with these connections and the potential environmental and social impacts associated with them.

79

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

The Notion Road / Squires Beach Road connection over Highway 401 was not included in the modelling analysis as it is seen as beyond the 2031 time frame for this ITMP. This is consistent with the approach and recommended phasing which was proposed in the 2017 Durham Region Transportation Master Plan.

Overall, the preferred network alternative (Scenario 2) is depicted in Figure 57. The identified road improvements of this scenario not only represent better network performance as suggested by the model, but also fiscally responsible improvements in the medium and long term. Moreover, as the aforementioned figure illustrates, Scenario 2 volume to capacity (v/c) ratios show visible improvements in zones subject to increasing congestion, such as is the case for Harwood Avenue, Rossland Avenue and Church Street. These improvements are further backed by the feedback received during the engagement and consultation phases where stakeholders identified many of these areas sensitive to congestion and safety. It is important to acknowledge that while this section of the report does not analyze active transportation (AT), the preferred network selected was taken into consideration for developing the proposed AT and trails network that is detailed in Section 4.2.

4.4 Traffic operations

The following subsections build upon the existing conditions traffic operations analysis of three road corridors of Ajax, as examined in Section 2.6.4, in order to provide recommendations to optimize the performance at the key intersections from the three corridors of Bayly Street West, Harwood Avenue South, and Westney Road South. The recommendations were tested and evaluated on the existing conditions Synchro files previously calibrated, in order to determine optimized levels of service (LOS) and critical movements volume over capacity ratio (v/c). Traffic signal operations are under the jurisdiction of Durham Region. The Region has an ongoing program to monitor and optimize phasing/timing at signalized intersections. Following the finalization of the ITMP the recommendations will be submitted to the Region for consideration.

Additionally, SimTraffic was utilized for queue analysis to determine if storage lengths are adequate for the traffic conditions at every intersection. The maximum average queue was used to determine the sufficiency of the storage lanes. SimTraffic records the maximum back of queue observed for every two-minute period. The maximum average queue is the average of all the two-minute maximum queues.

4.4.1 Bayly Street West corridor

The recommendations for Bayly Street West intersections with movements that exhibit overcapacity are:

Optimize signals at Westney Road and Bayly Street

The intersection of Westney Road and Bayly Street had an acceptable level of service during both the a.m. and p.m. peak hours (LOS “C” and “D”, respectively), however, there were multiple movements identified as critical and the eastbound through movement is theoretically over capacity (v/c = 1.04). The signal timings were optimized to improve the performance of this intersection. ► Table 24 shows the updated result. After the optimization, there are several movements that are still critical, however all the movements are within capacity. Given that these conditions are only expected during one hour of the day, no additional improvements are suggested; nonetheless, this intersection should continue to be monitored.

► A southbound right turn lane is being added to the Bayly and Westney intersection in 2019 as part of the intersection modifications required to accommodate the Durham Live development in Pickering.

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

Add a protected westbound left turn phase on Finley Street and Bayly Street

The intersection of Finley Avenue and Bayly Street has an acceptable level of service during both the a.m. and p.m. peak hours (LOS “A” and “C”, respectively), however, the westbound left turn movement is theoretically over capacity during the p.m. peak hour (v/c = 1.09). A protected westbound left turn phase was added to this intersection. ► Table 24 shows the updated results. After the addition of the westbound left protected phase, the movement is operating well below the critical threshold and the v/c ratio for the northbound left-turn movement has decreased. Given that these conditions are only expected during one hour of the day no additional improvements are suggested.

Optimize signals at Harwood Avenue and Bayly Street

► The intersection of Harwood Avenue Road and Bayly Street had an acceptable level of service during both the a.m. and p.m. peak hours (LOS “C” and “D”, respectively), however there were a couple movements identified in the p.m. peak hour as critical and the southbound left movement is theoretically over capacity (v/c = 1.10). The signal timings were optimized to improve the performance of this intersection. ► Table 24 summarizes the updated result. After the optimization, the movements are still critical, however all the movements are within capacity. Given that these conditions are only expected during one hour of the day no additional improvements are suggested. This intersection should continue to be monitored.

Based on Table 25, there are two movements that result in slightly longer average maximum queue length than its storage length. Additional recommendations at these movements of these intersections include:

Monitor Monarch Avenue & Bayly Street W

► The northbound left direction presently has a storage length of 25 metres, however, the average maximum queue during the p.m. peak hour is approximately 29 metres, resulting in a deficit of 4 metres. Due to the small difference in average maximum queue length, it is recommended that this movement be closely monitored to see if future growth will have drastic changes to the queue.

► The eastbound right direction presently has a storage length of 19 metres, however, the average maximum queue is approximately 19 metres during the p.m. peak hour, resulting in a maximum average

83

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

queue equal to the storage length. Since there is no difference between the queue length and storage length, and any spillover should not have a drastic impact to the through movement, no changes to the storage lane is needed at this time. The movement should be monitored.

4.4.2 Harwood Avenue South corridor

Although some of the intersections were perceived as problematic due to the reduction of travel lanes along the corridor, the traffic analysis as detailed in Section 2.6.4, indicates that the intersections are operating at adequate conditions (LOS “D” or better) with no critical movements. For this reason, new optimizations to signal operations to enhance the level of service are not presently required. As previously indicated, the vehicle traffic growth along this corridor is projected to be minimal and the two-lane cross section can readily accommodate the traffic.

Queue analysis at Harwood Avenue South

Further analyses to evaluate impact on queue lengths on these intersections were also closely examined. Based on the Simtraffic results, Table 26 shows the average maximum queues for each movement at the intersections of this corridor.

Based on Table 26, there is only one movement that has an average maximum queue longer than its storage length. Thereby, one recommendation at this intersection includes:

Monitor Harwood Avenue South & Westney Road South / Dreyer Road East

► The eastbound left direction presently has a spacing of 15 metres, however, the average p.m. queue is approximately 18 metres. Currently, there is a deficit of 3 metres. Since there is small difference between

84

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

the queue length and storage length, no changes to the storage lane is needed at this moment but should continue to be monitored.

Westney Road South corridor

The following recommendations are made for Westney Road South intersections with movements that exhibit overcapacity during the p.m. peak period:

Optimize signals and monitor Westney Road South and Fairall Street

► The intersection of Westney Road South and Fairall Street had an acceptable level of service during both the a.m. and p.m. peak hours, however, there were multiple movements identified as critical and the eastbound left and southbound right movement were theoretically over capacity. The signal timings were optimized to improve the performance of this intersection. Further, an overlap phase was given to the southbound right turn movement in conjunction to the eastbound left phase.

► Table 27 below shows the updated results. After the optimization, there are several movements that are still critical, however all the movements are within capacity. Given that these conditions are only expected during one hour of the day, no additional improvements are suggested. This intersection should be monitored.

Based on Table 28, there are two movements that results in a longer average maximum queue length than its storage length for both the a.m. and p.m. peak hour. The proposed recommendations for these include: 85

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

Monitor the intersection’s southbound right turn lane

► The southbound right direction presently has a spacing of 85 metres, however, the average p.m. queue is approximately 88 metres, resulting in a deficit of 3 metres. Since there is small difference between the queue length and storage length, no change to the storage lane is needed at this moment but the vehicular demand for storage length should continue to be monitored.

Extend the westbound right turn lane

► The westbound right direction presently has a spacing of 25 metres, however, the average queue is 42 metres and 36 metres during the a.m. and p.m. peak hours, respectively. Currently there is a deficit of 17 metres. Given the width of the through lane on the approach, there is a potential to extend the right turn lane using pavement marking further westbound to accommodate additional right turn storage. This intersection should be analyzed further to determine the best way to provide the additional storage. Figure 58 shows the storage lane for the westbound right movement at Westney Road S and Fairall Street.

4.5 Supportive policies and transportation initiatives

The provision of municipal transportation services today goes far beyond constructing, maintaining and operating road networks and planning for infrastructure improvements. To complement this, Ajax’s ITMP also provides a policy toolkit to promote inclusive multimodal mobility, enhance safety for all transportation users and prepare for new technological innovations and trends. The success of these policies is dependent on the collaborative efforts of all stakeholders and the continuous promotion of the programs through educational and communicational campaigns. This subsection presents six policy guidelines to support an inclusive, safe and resilient mobility system including:

► Continuing with Complete Streets ► Improving multi-modal transportation ► Strengthening transportation demand management (TDM) ► Enhancing road safety through Vision Zero ► Preparing for new mobility technologies ► Introducing Intelligent transportation systems

4.5.1 Continuing with Complete Streets

Complete Streets provide comfortable and attractive streets to travel along for users of all ages and abilities. A Complete Streets approach advocates that streets must accommodate the social, recreational, ecological and mobility needs of its users. In other words, cities and towns can change the nature of streets to be more than just venues for mobility, but means for economic development, community well-being, environmental and public health promotion. Some associated benefits to implementing Complete Streets include:

► Increased health benefits through walking and cycling; ► Enhanced safety; ► Lower transportation costs; ► Greater opportunities for social interaction; and ► Reduce road congestion and pollution.

Balancing the needs of different road users and purposes is an important objective for Ajax’s transportation planning. Traditionally, roads have been planned to prioritize motor vehicle traffic. The new twenty-first century approach has shifted from a ‘vehicle-centric’ to a ‘user-centric’ road design (see Figure 59). By applying a Complete Streets approach and retrofitting existing roadways to integrate inclusive and multi-modal design, it can help improve accessibility and interconnectivity between different land uses and transportation users.

87

Figure 59. Complete Streets: Our goals have changed

Twentieth Century Street Design Priorities Twenty-first Century Street Design Priorities

Multi-Modal Mobility + Access Public Health / Safety Auto-Mobility Economic Development Automobile Safety Environmental Quality Livability / Quality of Life

The importance of Complete Streets is recognized by the Town and addressed in several planning documents including the 2010 Pedestrian and Bicycle Master Plan, the 2013 Transportation Master Plan and the 2016 Official Plan. These planning documents address various elements of Complete Streets including: surrounding land uses, the intended roadway function within the overall transportation network, traffic volumes, existing transportation modes, cyclist and pedestrian demand, transit services, utilities, and right-of-way. A Complete Streets approach to planning and designing has been applied to several roadways within the Town of Ajax including but not limited to Harwood Avenue, Church Street, Taunton Road and Williamson Drive.

Figure 60 shows aerial imagery of Harwood Avenue before and after a Complete Streets redesign. Harwood Avenue was formerly a four-lane cross section with sidewalks on both sides of the road and no cycling facility. Following the redesign of Harwood Avenue, an integrated cycle track and sidewalk design was implemented in place of the existing sidewalks on both sides of the road from Lake Driveway to McRae Road. Providing a dedicated facility for both cyclists and pedestrians at McCrae Road, the cycling facility transferred from a cycle track to buffered bike lanes. The buffered bike lanes extend from McRae Road to Dryden Road. Harwood Avenue South is now a two-lane cross-section from Dryer Drive to Lake Driveway, with on-street parking. The redesign of Harwood Avenue South is meant to have a traffic calming affect and enhance the public realm as a space where residents want to walk and bike along.

88

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

Figure 60. Example of Complete Streets application on Harwood Avenue South, Ajax32

Left: Harwood Ave. South before Complete Streets redesign; Right: Harwood Ave. South after Complete Streets

The ITMP promotes the continuation of Complete Streets by treating any transportation design, retrofit and maintenance projects as opportunities to address the needs of multiple modes of travel. This policy also acknowledges that its applicability is dependant on each local context and sensitive to topographical, technical, or legal considerations. All Complete Streets projects will benefit from a rich and inclusive consultation process with residents and stakeholders where desired benefits are emphasized and shared with all road users.

The ITMP Complete Streets policy also stresses the importance of addressing new and retrofit projects across different Town and Regional departments, as well as private developers, as its implementation often benefits from the coordination of multiple efforts working towards a common goal. Furthermore, best design guidelines such as Toronto’s Complete Street Guide (2012); Boston Complete Streets Design Guideline (2013); NACTO’s recent “Designing for All Ages and Abilities: Contextual Guidance for High-Comfort Bicycle Facilities” (2017); and Transportation Associations of Canada’s (TAC) “Geometric Design Guide for Canadian Roads” (2017) make great sources with successful case studies of Completes Streets applications that can inform design criteria and standards.

89

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

Complete Streets policy recommendations

► Continue promoting multi-functional street corridors to provide better accessibility and travel options to different users.

► Incorporate the best practice design guidelines available.

► Promote Complete Streets across different Town departments and with private developers to integrate efforts toward a common goal.

► Acknowledge applicability exceptions within the practical, legal, technical, topographical, and financial limitations.

► Apply concepts to all existing, retrofit, and new transportation projects, acknowledging the importance of multi-modal integration, accessibility, safety and streetscape.

4.5.2 Improving multi-modal transportation

Multi-modality is often referred to as a network that facilitates the inter-operation and transfer between two or more modes of transportation. In an effort to reduce car-dependency and vehicle road congestion, a multimodal network provides alternative travel mode options. Policies that favour multi-modal trips and mode transfers may vary: from introducing park-and-ride facilities, to bicycle parking, accessible transit facilities, to promoting mix- land use development, among others. These and other related initiatives were frequently voiced during the consultation phase of this ITMP, with particular emphasis on notable multi-modal opportunities at the Ajax GO train station, where many modes converge to feed the transit system.

In this regard, one of the most significant new upper-tier policies that will affect Ajax in the current planning period relates to GO Transit and the Ajax GO Station. A major commitment has been made by Metrolinx to transition the regional commuter rail service, with a plan to offer greater frequencies and reliability, and an eventual change to electrification and all-day service.

Recognizing that the societal cost of adding new parking facilities at the GO stations is no longer sustainable, Metrolinx is requiring municipalities to address this problem by encouraging people to find other ways than driving to get to and from the station. By 2031, Metrolinx anticipates that rail ridership for Ajax as a home station should increase to 8,000 from the current 4,300 (2015), and up to 1,000 as destination trips (from the current 125)33. At the same time, Metrolinx has set a goal to increase walking to and from the station from 4 to 6-8 percent; cycling from 1 to 2-3 percent; pickup/drop off from 15 to 16-18 percent; carpooling from 5 to 6-8 percent; transit from 18 to 20-22 percent; and micro-transit (not currently available) to 12-24 percent. Moreover, the number of people using drive alone and park is set to reduce from 55 to 38-40 percent. These goals are illustrated in Figure 61.

2016 2031 goal

Although transit services are not provided by the Town of Ajax, there are numerous Town-led initiatives and synergies that can build upon current efforts to support existing transit operations. In this line, the Town supports Metrolinx’s initiative and is already taking actions towards achieving the modal share goal at its station. Some of the initiatives include the optimization of the intersection of Westney Road S and Fairall Street to enhance transit and vehicular access to and from the station; the completion of the elevated pedestrian bridge to connect the north and south parking lots over Fairall Street, and bike parking at the station. Complementary policies like Complete Streets, Ajax’s Transportation Demand Management Plan, and the continuous promotion of its active transportation facilities, will continue to advocate for the use of alternative modes of transportation. The integration and coordination of these efforts by all local, regional, and private stakeholders will encourage smooth, safe and convenient transfers between modes.

Multi-modal transportation recommendations

► In coordination with Durham Region Transit, build accessible sidewalks and bike facilities at transit stops.

► Optimize traffic signals to enhance access to and from the GO station.

► Participate and join efforts for multi-modal initiatives with all levels of government, transit agencies, and private developers.

► Find synergies with the private sector to promote Mobility as a Service (MaaS) to inform users on how to use and benefit from multiple modes to perform a trip.

► Explore the feasibility of a bike-sharing program, with especial connections to transit and popular destinations such as schools, libraries, and community centres.

91

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

4.5.3 Strengthening transportation demand management

Transportation demand management (TDM) encompasses a wide range of policies, programs, and services that seek to encourage sustainable travel behaviour. In an effort to reduce reliance on single-occupant vehicle trips, TDM measures are designed to make more efficient and effective use of existing alternative modes of transportation. A holistic TDM approach combines a mixture of service, marketing, and also infrastructure development to reduce auto-dependence, congestion, pollution and health-related issues.

In 2015, the Town of Ajax adopted its TDM plan which states a vision and short-, medium-, and long-term TDM goals actions and programs. The proposed vision seeks to develop a balanced transportation system that provides a full range of travel choices through infrastructure, programming, education and promotion of alternative modes of transportation. Specific goals of Ajax’s TDM Plan include:

► Position the Town of Ajax as a leading example within the Region of Durham for sustainable transportation programs. ► Reduce the use of single-occupant vehicle trips. ► Increase the multi-occupant vehicle modal split (such as with car sharing and transit). ► Incrementally increase mode share of transit, carpooling and active transportation (walking, cycling). ► Provide leadership and incentives to area businesses to encourage them to adopt TDM initiatives. ► Support active transportation and associated infrastructure. ► Monitor and effectively measure the benefits associated with TDM programs. ► Communicate the need and benefits of TDM to staff, Council, and the public.

The supportive TDM measures of the ITMP build upon these goals and the existing TDM plan by framing its recommendations under a three-pronged approach: infrastructure, promotion, and normalization (see Figure 62). The relationship of these elements is not mutually-exclusive, as they all provide vital synergies to sway sustainable travel behaviour.

Figure 62. Three-pronged approach to travel behaviour change

Includes roads, trails, buses and related facilities necessary to get people to places by other means than driving. The infrastructure Infrastructure must be well maintained and it must be perceived as safe. Infrastructure

Includes information, incentives, educational programs, special events and other encouragements that will be required to get people to think about using other modes. Focus marketing to the kind of traveller, whether a driver, a pedestrian, a novice cyclist or Promotion experienced rider as each needs to hear the appropriate message. Normalization Promotion

Includes social and legal strategies to induce travel behaviour change. This can include the appointment of multi-modal champions and mentors to act as community ambassadors. It can also mean the creation of the legislative and regulatory policies (such as congestion Normalization charging, toll-roads, paid parking, parking cash out, among other).

92

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

TDM supporting policy recommendations

Infrastructure

► Monitor regularly the condition and performance of the infrastructure and find mechanisms to channel and process user feedback efficiently. ► Integrate land use planning in transportation infrastructure projects to promote development that encourages short-distance trips that are not necessarily dependant on motorized vehicles. ► Monitor the progress of smart technologies and be an early adopter of technologies that can make the existing infrastructure more efficient35. ► Require major private destinations and employers to provide locker rooms and shower facilities for cyclists.

Promotion

► Champions and mentors – Reach out to volunteers or pay community ambassadors to be part of a sustainable travel mentorship program. ► Impart sustainable travel lessons to young children by working with police and elementary schools to deliver safe riding programs like Bicycle Rodeos. ► Bicycle Mentor Program - Match experienced cyclists as volunteers who can mentor newcomers to the Town. Bicycles can be loaned to participants temporarily (typically the summer months) which they can use for any purpose including group rides, work travel and leisure. Group rides, tours, social events, and training sessions would be offered as a way to introduce newcomers to the Town, practice language skills, get to know people, and ultimately, help normalize cycling as a transportation mode36. ► Continue enhancing the network of bicycle-friendly businesses and offer incentives to join the program. ► Continue to work with Smart Commute Durham to promote TDM measures and programs in the Town of Ajax.

Normalization

► Strengthen the inclusion of TDM actions in key municipal documents:

o Traffic Impact Study Guidelines – Introduce supportive infrastructure including priority parking for carpools, car share and electric vehicles; bicycle parking; connections to transit; pedestrian-first approach to site design, among others.

o Official Plan & Land Use By-law (by-law currently under review). ▪ Reviewing parking requirements with a goal to reducing them. ▪ Replacing parking minimums with parking maximums. ▪ Encouraging corner neighbourhood retailing. ▪ Encourage more mix-use development.

► Encourage the Province to place a greater onus on drivers with respect their behaviour in the presence of vulnerable road users, through higher fines for offences. ► Neighbourhood retailing - bring back neighbourhood retailing so households may avoid unnecessary long- distance trips; encourage such businesses through tax incentives.37

4.5.4 Enhancing road safety through Vision Zero

Road safety is integral to the functionality, usability, and enjoyment of the overall transportation system. No deaths or serious injury should be considered acceptable consequences of mobility. The contemporary Vision Zero perspective of road safety, along with its safe systems approach, encourages the long-term goal of eliminating road traffic deaths and serious injuries.

The first step of implementing Vision Zero plan in Ajax is to understand the existing local road safety approach. The Town of Ajax operates a Share the Road campaign which educates pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists on tips to educate road users about safe road behaviour. In addition, the Town of Ajax implements speed management through traffic calming initiatives. The Traffic Calming Warrant Update was completed in 2015 measuring speed, establishing a collision threshold and various other indicators to determine if traffic calming measures should be implemented. As of now, all traffic calming measures must first originate as a public request. Road safety in neighborhoods and around school zones is promoted through municipally sponsored initiatives like Road Watch and Active and Safe Routes to School.

In tandem with the Region, Ajax road safety will be supported through the Vision Zero Durham Region Strategic Road Safety Action Plan (SRSAP), which is expected to be completed by summer 2019. This Action Plan’s goal is to reduce fatal and injury collisions by 10% within five years (2019-2023), and will be measured through an all- collision analysis, emphasizing eight collision factors: intersections, aggressive driving, distracted driving, young drivers, pedestrians, impaired driving, cyclists and commercial vehicles.

Through Road Safety Action Plans, municipalities can guide interim road safety goals and mitigation measures. Vision Zero envisions these goals and outcomes as a shared responsibility between road users and system designers such as traffic engineers, transportation planners, land-use planners, public health professionals, police enforcement and emergency response teams. Through a mix of collaborative efforts, safe infrastructure design and policies (which account human error and vulnerability), key directives for a Vision Zero are proposed:

► Focus on facilities and injury collision analysis. ► Design a road system that accounts for human error and vulnerability. ► Implement the safe system approach, which considers the multiple influences of road safety. ► Understand road safety as a shared responsibility between system designers and users.

The proposed evidence-based and collaborative action items for road safety seek to enhance Ajax’s mobility systems towards a safer, healthier and more resilient future. Adopting Vision Zero requires a long, mid and short- term understanding of road safety, so that interventions that reduce (and eventually eliminate) road traffic deaths and serious injuries can be appropriately monitored and evaluated. Adaptable interventions are a key element to the longevity of Vision Zero plans. The Vision Zero Road Safety Action Plan should be contextual, flexible and contain achievable steps that will impact change in road safety.

Vision Zero supporting policy recommendations

► Using the Durham Regional Road Safety Plan as a foundation, develop a Town of Ajax Road Safety Action Plan. The plan will provide Town of Ajax-specific road safety goals and directives for preferred countermeasures, community initiatives, pilot studies, and education programs. This plan should be evidence-based by utilizing the collision analysis database to inform its content. To strengthen the Road

94

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

Safety Action Plan’s resiliency, it should be developed collaboratively across disciplines and contextually to the unique conditions of Ajax’s transportation framework. A successful Road Safety Action Plan will: o Integrate and align efforts from existing educational initiatives. o Evaluate the results of the KSI collision analysis to develop a well-suited initial Vision Zero objective for Ajax. o Have contextual implementation measures for Ajax which are based on a review of existing strategies. o Integrate multi-disciplinary initiatives that influence road safety (such as the walking school bus, enforcement education programs and traffic calming).

► In conjunction with Durham Region and other Regional Municipalities, create a database of KSI collision analysis and an Ajax Road Safety Action Plan. Providing evidence-based collision analysis is fundamental to the informed development of Road Safety Action Plans. The proposed Injury Prevention collision analysis for the Town of Ajax should be implemented either concurrently or in advance of the Road Safety Manual (RSM) process which performs network screening, diagnoses problem locations, proposes countermeasures and evaluates success. Injury Prevention Screening will quantitively analyze KSI collision trends and help to prioritize interventions based on system-level collision sources. The database could inform the Local and Regional Road Safety Action Plans and should be initiated by: o Collecting KSI collision data from the past 5 or more years, using a variety of sources including hospital and police reports, intersection cameras and media reports. o Focusing data analysis on system-level collision cause trends. o Identifying trends which inform preventative measures.

► Develop a Road Safety Management Steering Committee which is consists of a broad range of system designers and can inform implementation measures and objectives as the plan develops. ► Coordinate efforts with Durham Region to strengthen programs and continue to align objectives and data- collections methods. ► Develop a monitoring and evaluation framework for Vision Zero and the Road Safety Action Plan which allows for the continual update of the plan as conditions evolve.

4.5.5 Preparing for new mobility technologies

Several recent technological advances have begun to expand travel options and are poised to transform transportation in the coming decades. These technologies include ride-sharing platforms, electric vehicles, and in a not too distant future, autonomous vehicles. Collectively, these technologies create a new mobility landscape that will continue to evolve over the planning horizon of the ITMP.

Ride-sharing platforms, such as Uber and Lyft, offer transportation services operated by private vehicle owners. These services are accessed through smart phone and mobile applications that allow users to request pick-up and drop-off locations. In many jurisdictions, including parts of the GTHA, the carpool feature allows multiple passengers traveling in similar directions to ride in a single, dynamically routed vehicle providing a service that is considerably more cost competitive than a taxi, though usually less cost competitive than transit.

Electric vehicles are motor vehicles with electric engines instead of traditional combustion engines. These vehicles do not generate point source emissions and make a positive contribution toward reducing transportation

95

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0 emissions. These vehicles, however, require charging infrastructure, and the provision of public charging locations can encourage more motorists to consider switching to this technology. Autonomous vehicles (AVs) use advanced sensors and artificial intelligence to perform all driving-related tasks. While this technology is in relatively advanced stages of development, it is not clear when it will be widely deployed with estimates ranging from the early 2020’s to the 2030’s or beyond. When they are introduced on a wide-scale, it is expected that AVs will improve road safety, reduce the cost of ride-sharing and enable more flexible use of time for drivers. The potential to reduce the need for vehicle ownership, reduced parking demand and greater opportunities for shared parking38 are among the important implications of this technology for towns like Ajax.

Micro-transit

As defined by Metrolinx, micro-transit “refers to on-demand, dynamically-routed transit services typically using smaller vehicles (such as vans) than conventional buses, supported by an online application.”39 Examples include Chariot, which operates in several U.S. cities, and ride-share services such as UberPool, UberPool Express and LyftLine which operate in the City of Toronto and surrounding municipalities. These companies offer a service that is generally considered to be more convenient than conventional transit and usually less expensive than a taxi.

In low density areas with limited transit service, micro-transit has the potential to significantly improve mobility options for individuals who do not own a vehicle and may actually be a more cost-effective approach to providing conventional transit. Some municipalities such as Innisfil, Ontario have therefore chosen to subsidize private micro-transit operators in specific areas. Micro-transit can also complement existing transit, particularly regional services, by making it easier for individuals to reach key terminals. However, in areas with moderate or extensive conventional transit service, private micro-transit operators can have the opposite effect. Micro-transit services compete with conventional transit for the same riders in this context, making it more difficult and costly to deliver effective conventional transit. This complex relationship between micro-transit and conventional transit means that an effective regulatory environment is key to leveraging its potential benefits.

Assessing major infrastructure investments

The future introduction of autonomous vehicles into the transportation system will likely affect both the demand for travel within the Town of Ajax and the capacity of the road network. Automation is likely to make ride-sharing trips more affordable, which may induce additional demand for travel. Similarly, automation is expected to allow more people to use their travel time for work or recreation, which could induce further travel demand. Finally, road pricing may play a more prominent role in the long-term future, which could also affect travel demand.

As with travel demand, the capacity of the road network is likely to be affected by AVs, particularly in the long term when AVs may constitute a significant portion of the vehicle mix in the Town. Shorter headways and the potential to achieve improved optimization of both traffic signals and vehicle routing could all increase the capacity of the existing road network. Average vehicle occupancy, which could increase or decrease depending on road pricing and how AVs are introduced, may also have a significant impact on road capacity. While there is considerable uncertainty about how AVs may affect overall demand and capacity, the introduction of AVs may also present an opportunity to introduce new policy instruments (such as road pricing or dynamic speed limits for example) that can influence both demand and capacity.

96

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

With so much uncertainty surrounding the transportation network in the long term, it is recommended that the Town consider undertaking a risk assessment—or new mobility audit—for large scale network investments that are rationalized over a long-time horizon. A new mobility audit would assess the risk that a major investment could be underutilized in the long term, and therefore be an inefficient use of limited public resources. At a high level, the risk for various kinds of transportation projects can be classified as illustrated in Table 29.

Table 29. New mobility audit to assess risk for future road network investments Project Typology Risk Level Justification Maintenance projects lower risk Helps to maintain the existing conditions of the network. Most existing infrastructure is well utilized and any potential capacity increases or demand reductions from new mobility technologies would likely be offset by population growth within the Town. Complete Streets lower risk The benefit of public realm improvements will not be undermined by new projects mobility technologies. Designing a roadway to allocate more space for transit, cycling, and pedestrian facilities will likely be beneficial as a future reduction in vehicle ownership may contribute to increased walking and cycling. New road construction low risk These will be necessary for property access in new developments. Due to projects for new limited greenfield development in Ajax, these projects will not be as common. developments Road expansion/ higher risk The implementation of more intelligent transportation systems, greater widening projects vehicle occupancy, reduced vehicle ownership and more effective travel demand management are likely to impact usage of these.

New mobility technologies recommendations

► Review zoning bylaw parking requirements and consider where it may be appropriate to reduce parking minimums due to potentially lower demand over the full building lifecycle; identify strategies to reduce parking demand in the interim on case-by-case basis. ► Review opportunities to implement electric charging infrastructure at public parking lots / garages for electric vehicles. ► Work with Durham Region to establish a regional working group to track new mobility trends and appropriate policy responses. Members of this working group should include representatives from Durham Region, the local municipalities, Durham Region Transit, Metrolinx, educational institutions, citizen representatives and other relevant industry actors. ► Undertake new mobility audits for any major construction investments. ► Provide as much separated cycling infrastructure on major streets as possible to mitigate future conflict between cyclists and AVs. ► Undertake an AVs pilot project. ► In coordination with Durham Region Transit, explore opportunities to provide micro-transit or other mobility options for areas in Town where their traditional transit service is not practical but there is an unmet need for improved transit service. ► Explore opportunities to establish a regulatory environment together with Durham Region and Durham Transit that integrates micro-transit and ride-sharing services in a manner that complements conventional transit services.

4.5.6 Introducing Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS)

Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) encompass the application of technology across all aspects of transportation infrastructure delivery and operations. As of late, infrastructure technologies have expanded beyond transportation to wider applications that serve to enhance the efficiency and intelligence of city infrastructure and operations. ITS and Smart City applications present opportunities to improve the experience of travellers and the ability of Town staff to continuously assess the performance of their facilities. In line with the Town’s four key principles, these applications support accessibility, efficiency and safety, and can work to enhance the quality of life of Town residents. Peer municipalities in the GTHA regard ITS applications as a congestion management tool. While congestion may not be of critical concern on Town roads, ITS applications like traveller information systems, signal upgrades, data collection and performance monitoring are relevant considerations that the Town can contemplate further through this ITMP. The Town may also explore opportunities to integrate the Town’s data into the Regional active transportation management system (ATMS) software that may provide a common, one window interface to the public.

Traveller Information

As one of most common outputs for ITS, traveller information represents information provided by agencies or third parties to travellers to help inform timing, mode and route decisions for trips on transportation facilities. Traveller information can be delivered to travellers in the field using dynamic signage (ex: variable message signs), online, by email, using social media platforms, using mobile applications or by radio and TV communications. Traveller information relies upon the types and frequency of data being collected across a transportation system, as it is then disseminated to its most valuable form and communicated to travellers before the trip and/or en-route. The Town currently provides static transportation-related information online through their Public Notices webpage. Relevant information that is readily available through other channels includes information shared by the Ministry of Transportation Ontario (MTO), Durham Region’s Traffic Watch, Durham Region Transit, OPP and third parties like Waze and Google Maps.

Durham Region has recently acquired active traffic Figure 63. Durham Region Traffic Watch (ATMS) management system (ATMS) software to input and communicate planned construction and road maintenance events on Regional roads (Figure 63). The public facing portion of this system, known as Traffic Watch, integrates the region’s data with MTO data and shared local municipality data on a web-based platform to communicate camera locations and feeds, incidents, planned events (special, construction and maintenance) and infrastructure updates (ex: new signalized intersection). Opportunities to integrate the Town’s data into the regional ATMS should be explored to strengthen the Region’s

98

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0 ability to provide traveller information, allow for quick and efficient implementation and “one window” interface for the public and promote data sharing.

MTO currently provides a mix of traveller information along their highways across the Province. Within the Town’s borders, Highways 401 and 412 are covered by a network of CCTV cameras available online and planned maintenance activities are displayed on their 511 website. MTO also manages a Twitter account to communicate traveller information through this platform (#ONHwys). In the winter, a Track My Plow portal is also made available by the MTO to communicate to travellers the activities of snow clearing equipment on the Provincial highways. Durham Region Transit (DRT) provides transit service information to their Figure 64. Example of OPP twitter Post travellers online, by text and phone (voice). Recently, DRT installed GPS technology on their bus fleet to allow for real-time bus arrival information to be communicated to their travellers. The OPP operates a GTA Traffic Twitter account to provide up-to-date and valuable road condition and incident information to users of this social media platform across the region (see Figure 64 for example). On the other side of the industry, Google Maps and Waze leverage their large consumer base to generate enormous amounts of traveller information and communicate this data to users in real-time.

Transportation Big-Data

Big data and open data are recent trends across Canadian municipalities where data is actively being collected and made available to understand communities better. Prioritizing data represents a positive shift towards transparent government processes and evidence-based decision making. Transportation data is a powerful medium to understand both finite details and large-scale patterns of transportation systems and Town operations. At this time, the Town has an established open data portal where a series of datasets relating to boundaries, transportation, recreation, planning and development, housing and community services are downloadable online. The Town’s open data portal has laid a good foundation for further investment in data collection and analytics, as well as citizen engagement through online performance reporting.

At key locations across Town, pedestrian, cyclist and vehicle counts are being collected to help the Town understand the performance of their transportation facilities. However, this performance data is not currently included as a downloadable dataset online. As discussed in Section 5.6, it is recommended that the Town establishes a strategy to expand the coverage and frequency of traffic data collection, across all modes, and that these data be made available through the existing open data portal. Through this strategy, the Town can also develop a series of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to report traffic performance data in a dashboard format (see Figure 65 for example from the City of Calgary’s Citizen Dashboard40). It is recommended that Figure 65. Calgary Citizen the Town explores further developments available regarding open data and the Dashboard analytics of transportation big data to understand the performance of existing 99

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0 infrastructure and monitor the impact of future infrastructure investments. Given the evolution of the data market, it is recommended that the Town undertakes a data needs assessment and a market scan to determine whether data collection should be undertaken internally or purchased from a third party. Additionally, the Town’s existing website may include a platform for citizen and industry feedback to inform what type of data is valuable on the portal and at what frequency should it be updated by the Town.

Overall, it is recommended that the Town develops an ITS Strategic Plan to establish a vision for infrastructure technologies to enhance the efficiency and safety of Town transportation operations and services. Part of this strategic plan includes the undertaking of a transportation information needs assessment to identify gaps and user expectations about the information that is being provided to travellers of different modes. Additionally, the ITS Strategic Plan could be leveraged as well as part of a grander Smart Cities strategy that could be subject to grant applications offered by other Regional and Provincial agencies.

ITS policy recommendations

► Develop an ITS Strategic Plan in consultation with the Durham Region. ► Determine key data needs and develop a plan to collect or purchase data through data needs assessment. ► Analyze real-time data to understand the performance of the Town’s existing infrastructure and present this data online.

4.6 Road classification review

4.6.1 Existing classification system

The Official Plan of the Town of Ajax in its Schedule C-1 and Schedule C-4 classifies the existing road network based on a clear set of criteria that considers the roadways’ role in the system catering to various needs and modes of transportation. The existing road classification criteria that governs the hierarchy of Arterial roads (Type A, B, and C), Collector, Local, and Lanes was reviewed to determine if any existing roads were not operating consistent to their intended classification. Based on field visits and Town staff local expertise, the local roads indicated in Table 30 were found to be operating in a manner more consistent to a collector road hierarchy. Figure 66 depicts these roads referencing the unique IDs listed in Table 30.

The rationale to the proposed changes varies according to each case. Brennan Road provides access to Westney Heights Public School and functions as a collector road between Ravenscroft Road and Delaney Drive. Pearce Drive is designated as a collector between Rossland Road and Coughlen Street. Its designation as a collector should be extended to the intersection with Delaney Drive to complete this link. The proposed change in designation from local road to collector road for Brennan Road and Pearce Drive also is due to average annual daily traffic volumes of greater than 1,000 vehicles on both roads – a number that is above the maximum volume criteria for local roads.

Moreover, Coughlen Street is a natural extension of Sullivan Drive and provides a connection with Westney Road (arterial road). Furthermore, many local streets and neighbourhoods continue to branch out of Old Harwood Road, which is currently the only corridor that offers a higher-tier road class connection between Chapman Drive and Fishlock Street. Due to presumed lower traffic volumes on this corridor, the proposed action would be to monitor this road segment and take actions to change the road hierarchy once it is appropriate. This same

100

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0 recommendation can applicable to Seward Drive, Ainley Road and Ainsbury Avenue, with the latter two servicing relatively newer neighbourhoods that will continue to grow in the coming decades.

Any changes to the classification of these roads would need to be made through future updates to the Town’s Official Plan. Reclassification implications such as the impact on pavement structure and provision of other urban elements including sidewalks should also be considered for these updates.

4.6.2 Engineering standards for collector roads

The Town’s existing Standard Drawings for AS-204 13.0m Collector Roadway in a 23.0m Right-of-Way, was reviewed to assess options to better integrate various travel modes into collector road cross-sections. Based on a review of the Town’s standard, three suggested cross-section modifications are proposed for the Town’s consideration. The following provides a description and graphic for each of the three suggested modifications to AS-204 13.0m Collector Roadway in a 23.0m Right-of-Way.

Two lane cross-section with on-street parking (curb-side) and buffered bike lanes

The suggested cross-section identified in Figure 67 includes two 3.25 metre travel lanes, with on-street parking (2.4 metres) on one-side of the road, adjacent to the curb. The cross-section also includes 1.5 metres cycling facilities and a 0.6 metre buffer on the side of the road with on-street parking. If speeds on travel lane are low, on the side of the road where on-street parking exists, it is recommended that the buffer be placed between the cycling facility and on-street parking; otherwise the buffer can be placed between the travel lane and bike lane to add more separation to the bike lane. An additional 5 metres is provided on both sides of the road right-of-way for a boulevard and pedestrian zone. This cross-section assumes that transit service is not provided on the road.

Figure 67. 23-metre-wide collector roadway cross-section with on-street parking (curb-side)

Two lane cross-section with on-street parking and buffered bike lanes

The suggested cross-section identified in Figure 68 includes two 3.25 metre travel lanes, with on-street parking (2.4 metres) on one-side of the road. The on-street parking is adjacent to a travel lane and a buffer zone between a cycling facility. The cross-section also includes 1.5 metres cycling facilities (adjacent to the curb); a 0.6 metre buffer on one side and a 0.5 metre buffer on the other side of the road. On the side of the road where on-street parking exists, it is recommended that the buffer be placed between the bike lane and on-street parking to protect cyclists from the “door zone”. An additional 5 metres is provided on both side of the road right-of-way for a

102

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0 boulevard and pedestrian zone. This cross-section assumes that transit service is not provided on the road. This cross-section assumes that transit service is not provided on the road.

Figure 68. 23-metre-wide collector roadway cross-section with parking

Collector Roads with transit service

On collector roads with a transit route, as per TAC standards the minimum travel lane width should be 3.3m. To accommodate the wider travel lanes consideration should be given to reducing the width of other on road elements including the parking, buffer and bike lane widths.

5.0 IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY

5.1 Chapter overview

This chapter presents the implementation approach for the recommended active transportation and road network improvements, with their corresponding phasing, costing, and monitoring strategies. The implementation plan recognizes that no project will be constructed without funding and approval from Council. The plan is dynamic and acknowledges that priorities may change over time. The implementation plan is supported by a high-level costing plan to provide an indication of estimated funds needed to build the different projects. In order to gauge progress and impact of public policy toward creating a more complete multi-modal transportation network, a monitoring plan with a data collection framework is included at the end of the chapter.

5.2 Phasing

The phasing recommendations respond to the Town’s priorities analysis and build upon the technical expertise of Town staff, the travel demand modelling analysis which is based on population and employment forecasts, and input from multiple stakeholders and the public received during the second phase of consultation. The timeframes utilized for the study were divided into three future horizons:

► Short-term, generally within four years (2019 – 2022); ► Medium-term, generally within 10 years (2023 – 2030); and ► Long-term, generally within 11-20+ years (2031 and beyond).

The proposed phasing for active transportation facilities was coordinated to match the proposed phasing for road projects, as a means to further emphasize the multi-modal integration of these projects and to optimize resources when building them together, as opposed to separate standalone projects. It is recognized that the availability of funding will play a role in the exact dates of implementation of the transportation improvements. The proposed phasing for recommended infrastructure has been aligned with the 2018 Development Charge Background Study as this study was carried out in full coordination with the ITMP.

5.2.1 Future active transportation network phasing

Implementation of the Town’s active transportation network has been organized into the three future horizons. The recommended phasing of active transportation infrastructure is intended to be flexible and used as a guide to inform future decision making and planning in the Town. The proposed phasing of active transportation infrastructure is not a commitment to funding. It is recommended that Town staff review the active transportation network on an annual basis and report back to Council on an action plan to advance the implementation of future active transportation projects.

The phasing horizons for the Town`s active transportation network is aligned with the road network phasing identified in the ITMP (see section 5.2.2). Figure 69 illustrates the proposed phasing of active transportation routes.

5.2.2 Future road network phasing

Road improvements of the preferred alternative (Scenario 2) with proposed street widenings or extensions were allocated to the most appropriate of the three horizon periods to best serve the expected growth. The individual projects with their estimated completion period are listed in Table 32, summarized by phasing period in Table 33, and depicted in a map in Figure 70.

It is important to note that the timeline of the proposed road and AT projects is not intended to be prescriptive, especially for medium and long-term improvements. The preferred transportation networks are to a provide a road map for Town staff and decision makers to guide future investment, that will be confirmed at the time of implementation and based on available resources and priorities.

Coordination of multi-modal improvements is imperative to leverage the Town’s investments. On-going coordination with relevant external and Regional agencies, as well as internal Town departments, will reduce implementation risks that were not anticipated and/or duplicity of efforts. Road construction should be coupled with appropriate improvements for transit and active transportation. For instance, if a road is being extended and the active transportation plan calls for multi-use paths along both sides of the roadway, then the road and active transportation works should be constructed concurrently, along with any facilities needed to support or connect to transit. A Complete Streets approach to addressing all modes of transportation simultaneously will help to meet the multi-modal vision of the ITMP and leverage the investment to help create a connected network faster than trying to retrofit already-built infrastructure in the future.

5.3 Costing

5.3.1 Active transportation network

An estimated cost to implement the Town’s active transportation network has been developed to help inform future decision making. For most of the proposed active transportation projects, the estimated cost to implement the Town’s AT network was calculated using the Town’s 2018 Development Charge Background Study. For projects that were not included in that document, a set of standard unit prices that have been previously identified in studies of similar scope from various municipalities in Ontario were utilized. The unit prices used to cost the Town’s active transportation network are highlighted in Appendix D.

It is recognized that the level of effort to implement an active transportation route will vary on a project-by-project basis, and some projects could require additional work compared to other projects included in cost estimates. The unit prices are:

► Intended to be used for functional design purposes as they only include the installation of facilities and do not include contingency, design and approvals costs. ► Do not include the cost of property acquisitions, signal modifications, utility relocations, major roadside draining works, or costs associated with site-specific projects such as bridges, railway crossings, retaining walls, and stairways, unless otherwise noted. ► Assume typical environmental conditions and topography. ► Further detailed studies will also need to be completed in coordination with TRCA and other relevant agencies for trails shown off road and through the Natural Heritage System, particularly on TRCA lands, to ensure on-road connections are made in appropriate location and to ensure alignments meet required policies. ► Do not include applicable taxes and permit fees – which are considered additional.

Table 34 outlines the estimated costs to build the Town’s active transportation network.

Table 34. Estimated capital costs to build Ajax’s active transportation routes

Funding Type Short Term Medium Term Long Term Total Development Charge $ 2,203,342 $ 5,212,449 $ 10,745,000 $ 18,160,791 Funded Funding required from $ 6,761,109 other sources $ 1,499,902 $ 1,314,661 $ 9,575,672 Total $ 3,703,244 $ 11,973,557 $ 12,059,661 $ 27,736,463

Note: 1. This table does not include capital costs for routes under the jurisdiction of Durham Region. The estimated capital costs to implement active transportation routes and facilities under the jurisdiction of Durham Region is identified in the Regional Cycling Plan (2012).

The estimated cost to build the Town’s active transportation network is approximately $2775 million. Approximately $18 million of the total cost (equivalent to 65% of the total cost) is expected to be funded through

109

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

the Town’s Development Charges. Approximately $9.6 million of the total cost (equivalent to 35% of the total cost) will require additional consideration regarding alternative funding options.

Detailed costing information for the Town`s active transportation network is contained in Appendix D. It is recommended that this appendix be used as a tool by Town staff to track implementation of the network and to inform future decision making.

5.3.2 Road network

The proposed road network improvements of the preferred alternative (Scenario 2) are listed in Table 35 with the respective gross capital cost estimates. These roadway improvements will be implemented by the Town of Ajax and supported by development charges in accordance with Provincial legislation. The costing for the infrastructure improvements were based on the estimates indicated in the 2018 Development Charge Background Study published by the Town. These costs have also been summarized by short, medium and long-term horizons and by improvement type in Table 36.

5.4 Funding

Implementation of the ITMP will require significant investment from the Town with additional funding support from contributing partners including the Federal, Provincial and Regional governments and other key stakeholders. It is recommended that future investment options be monitored by the Town to leverage opportunities and increase funding to implement the various facets of the ITMP. Ajax would have to build a business case for each specific project and go through an application process with the respective funding source stream that is most relevant to the nature of the project. The following section outlines potential funding sources that can be explored to support the implementation of the ITMP.

5.4.1 Federal funding

Investing in Canada Plan: Starting in 2016, the federal government has committed to investing more than $180 billion during the next 10+ years in five main infrastructure priorities including public transit, green infrastructure, social infrastructure, rural and northern communities, and transportation infrastructure. The program is intended to be supported by various funding streams including but not limited to:

► Green Stream of the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program ($9.2 Billion/10 years) ► Smart Grid ($100 Million/4 years) ► Climate Adaptation and Resilience ($281 Million/11 years) ► Public Transit Stream of the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program ($20.1 Billion/10 years) ► National Trade Corridors Fund ($2.0 Billion/11 years) ► Connecting Communities by Rail and Water ($1.9 Billion/3 years) ► Modernizing Transportation iii ($76.7 Million/5 years) ► Trade and Transportation Information System ($50 Million/11 years)

The program is being delivered by Infrastructure Canada in partnership with other federal departments and agencies including Natural Resources Canada, the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, Employment and Social Development Canada and Transport Canada.

Federal Gas Tax Fund: The Gas Tax Fund provides municipalities with long-term funding for the construction and rehabilitation of public infrastructure including roads, bridges, public transit and recreational facilities. The Town’s annual capital budget fully allocates the Gas Tax Fund to be received by Ajax towards local initiatives such as road resurfacing and construction, neighbourhood improvements and recreational facilities.

111

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

New Building Canada Fund – Provincial-Territorial Infrastructure Component – National and Regional Projects (PTIC-NRP): This program provides $10 billion in funding to support infrastructure projects of national and regional significance that contribute to economic growth and innovation, move people and goods more freely and help to improve the environment. Eligible projects to be funded through this program include the construction, rehabilitation and enhancement of highways and roads, public transit infrastructure, culture, recreation and tourism. The application for potential projects closed in March 2018, however, it is recommended that the Town seek additional opportunities to apply for funding should it become available in the future.

Municipalities for Climate Innovation Program (MCIP): The MCIP is a five-year $75 million program designed to encourage Canadian municipalities to better prepare for and adapt to the new realities of climate change as well as reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The programs support a variety of projects including plans to encourage residents to use less polluting forms of transportation by encouraging cycling, walking and transit. The application for potential projects is closed, however, it is recommended that the Town seek additional opportunities to apply for funding should it become available in the future.

5.4.2 Provincial funding

Infrastructure Ontario (IO): IO offers a Loan Program that provides long-term financing to public sector clients to help renew infrastructure. IO loans have been used by several Ontario municipalities to revitalize roads and bridges, build recreational facilities, and improve the overall mobility of municipal residents. The Loan Programs provide various benefits to public sector clients such as:

► Affordable interest rates.

► Flexible terms of up to 30 years, designed to match the life of the asset.

► Access to dedicated and experienced staff throughout the loan process.

► Instant access to capital markets with no extra fees or commissions.

► No need to refinance over the life of the loan.

Provincial Gas Tax Program: The program provides long-term funding to reduce congestion, support economic growth and improve the overall quality of life of municipal residents. As part of the program, Ontario currently provides two cents to municipalities for every litre of gasoline sold to help fund local public transit improvements. Since the program began in 2004, more than $3.7 billion in funding has been allocated to Ontario municipalities.

Ontario Sport and Recreation Communities Fund (OSRCF): The OSRCF is a grant program intended to support active lifestyles for Ontarians through sport, recreation and physical activity. 2018-2019 funded projects include programs to support activities such as bike and hike workshops, CAN-Bike certified lessons and installation of bike repair stations.

Ontario Trillium Foundation (OTF): The OTF is an agency of the Government of Ontario, and one of Canada’s leading granting foundations. The goal of OTF is to build healthy and vibrant communities throughout Ontario through investments in community-based initiatives. Key priority outcomes for OTF grants include:

112

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

► High quality programming and infrastructure to support physical activity.

► Reduced impact on the natural environment.

► Increased engagement with the community.

► Increase economic stability and opportunity.

Tourism Development Fund: This program provides project-based funding to support tourism investment, tourism product development and industry capacity building. The program is meant to assist not-for-profit organizations, national and/or provincial industry sector associations, municipalities, and businesses to develop quality tourism products, encourage the competitiveness of our tourism sector organizations, stimulate increased tourist attendance and expenditures, and encourage private sector tourism investment in Ontario. The Town’s cycling network and cycling tourism could be eligible ways that the Town could apply for funding from this source.

5.4.3 Regional funding

Proposed infrastructure improvements located on roads and lands under the jurisdiction of Durham Region should be funded through the Region’s capital budget and other available funding sources.

5.4.4 Development charges

Funding for roadway and active transportation infrastructure projects has been identified in the Town’s 2018 Development Charge Background Study. The study outlines the capital investments required to support municipal services for the anticipated growth in the Town including roads, active transportation and transit.

5.4.5 Town funding

Capital projects are identified on an annual basis which includes the construction and rehabilitation of roadway and active transportation projects. Specifically, active transportation improvements can be identified as part of the overall cost of roadway projects in order to achieve efficiencies in project delivery and ultimately cost savings.

5.5 Monitoring the integrated multi-modal network

5.5.1 Monitoring progress

The impact of public policy and proposed improvements of the ITMP can only be measured through an integral monitoring strategy. The Town of Ajax will want to evaluate the progress in their policy application and infrastructure investments translated into the desired benefits aligned with the Vision Statement and principles listed in Sections 3.1 and 3.2. Monitoring this progress will help to steer future decision making and resource allocation based on key indicators, needs, and measurable outcomes. This will provide the opportunity to refine and update the ITMP in the future. Addressing this key aspect of the ITMP will ensure that a more balanced, safer and multi-modal transportation system continues to contribute to the Town’s well-being, health, and economy.

113

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

5.5.2 Data collection framework

A comprehensive and detailed data collection framework was developed to serve as a blueprint for monitoring progress. A key aspect in developing a monitoring strategy is to have clear list of indicators that measure different aspects of multi-modal facilities, services and their respective performance. Table 37 portrays this list by mode of transportation, data source, unit of measure, and frequency of collection. The progress can be monitored by establishing a baseline of historic and existing available indicators (many of which have been indicated in Section 2.0 of the ITMP) and constantly updating the indicators as they change in time. The information then can be published in the Town’s open data portal as an online performance dashboard that is available for any stakeholder and the public audience41. This may empower those reviewing the data to be more conscious of the benefits of multi-modal travel and contribute more proactively towards enhancing them.

6.0 CONCLUSION AND SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDATIONS

The ITMP contains important recommendations throughout several chapters of the document that should be implemented in a priority manner as outlined in the phasing plans. The recommendations include physical infrastructure projects as well as policies and additional studies to help strengthen the Town’s multi-modal transportation network and to help make the Town “future ready” for anticipated changes in travel behaviour due to emerging technologies. This chapter collects in one place all the recommendations of the ITMP.

6.1 Summary of recommendations

The key recommendations of the ITMP have been grouped into categories including:

► Future active transportation network;

► Future road transportation network;

► Road operations;

► Enhancing complete streets;

► Improving multi-modal transportation;

► Strengthening transportation demand management;

► Enhancing road safety through Vision Zero;

► Preparing for new mobility technologies; and

► Developing an intelligent transportation systems Strategic Plan.

6.1.1 Future active transportation network

► Implement the proposed active transportation network illustrated on Figure 47 recognizing the proposed phasing shown in Figure 69.

► Update the Town’s mapping and GIS database on an on-going basis to reflect the most up- to-date conditions and changes to the active transportation network.

► Consider the recommendations identified in Section 4.2.2 to plan, design and implement active transportation infrastructure that accommodate a range of user abilities and ages and encourage more people to engage in active form of recreation and travel.

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan 116

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

6.1.2 Future road transportation network

► Consider the implementation of Scenario 2 as the preferred alternative for the Town’s future 2031 and beyond road network, which includes thirteen roadways that could help to provide future capacity and enhance connectivity around the Town. Refer to Figure 70 for the proposed road improvements and corresponding phasing.

► Monitor traffic conditions to determine whether a possible flyover extension of Audley Road over Highway 401 to Chambers Drive is required at a long-term future date.

► Monitor and evaluate the extension of Clements Road from Green Court to Church Street; and the extension of Williamson Drive from Harwood Avenue to Thackery Drive during the next official plan update. Constructing these links would not be anticipated to result in dramatic improvements of time savings or distance travelled and have a high financial cost risks due to infrastructure grade-separation challenges entailed.

6.1.3 Road operations

► Bayly Street West corridor: o Ask Region to consider optimizing signals at Westney Road South and Bayly Street West. o Add a protected westbound left turn phase on Finley Street and Bayly Street West. o Ask Region to consider optimizing signals at Harwood Avenue South and Bayly Street.

► Harwood Avenue South corridor: o Monitor Harwood Avenue South & Westney Road South / Dreyer Road.

► Westney Road South corridor: o Ask Region to consider optimizing signals and monitor Westney Road South and Fairall Street. o Monitor the intersection’s southbound right turn lane. o Extend the westbound right turn lane.

6.1.4 Continuing with Complete Streets

► Continue promoting multi-functional street corridors to provide better accessibility and travel options to different users.

► Incorporate the best practice design guidelines available.

► Promote Complete Streets across different Town departments and with private developers to integrate efforts toward a common goal.

► Acknowledge applicability exceptions within the practical, legal, technical, topographical, and financial limitations.

► Apply concepts to all existing, retrofit, and new transportation projects, acknowledging the importance of multi-modal integration, accessibility, safety and streetscape.

117

6.1.5 Improving multi-modal transportation

► Build accessible sidewalks and bike facilities at transit stops.

► Optimize traffic signals to enhance access to and from the GO station.

► Participate and join efforts for multi-modal initiatives with all levels of government, transit agencies, and private developers.

► Find synergies with the private sector to promote Mobility as a Service (MaaS) to inform users on how to use and benefit from multiple modes to perform a trip.

► Explore the feasibility of a bike-sharing program, with special connections to transit and popular destinations such as schools, libraries, and community centres.

6.1.6 Strengthening transportation demand management (TDM)

► Infrastructure o Monitor regularly the condition and performance of the transportation infrastructure and find mechanisms to channel and process user feedback efficiently. o Integrate land use planning in transportation infrastructure projects to promote development that encourages short-distance trips that are not necessarily dependant on motorized vehicles. o Monitor the progress of smart technologies and be an early adopter of technologies that can make the existing infrastructure more efficient. o Require major private destinations and employers to provide locker rooms and shower facilities for cyclists.

► Promotion o Champions and mentors – Reach out to volunteers or pay community ambassadors to be part of a sustainable travel mentorship program. o Impart sustainable travel lessons to young children by working with police and elementary schools to deliver safe riding programs like Bicycle Rodeos. o Design and promote a Bicycle Mentor Program. o Continue enhancing the network of bicycle-friendly businesses and offer incentives to join the program. o Continue to work with Smart Commute Durham to promote TDM measures and programs in the Town of Ajax.

► Normalization o Strengthen the inclusion of TDM actions in key municipal documents. o Encourage the Province to place a greater onus on drivers with respect to their behaviour in the presence of vulnerable road users, through higher fines for offences. o Neighbourhood retailing - bring back neighbourhood retailing so households may avoid unnecessary long-distance trips; encourage such businesses through tax incentives.

118

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

6.1.7 Enhancing road safety through Vision Zero

► Using the Durham Region Road Safety Action Plan as a foundation, develop a Town of Ajax Road Safety Action Plan to provide the road safety goals and directives for preferred countermeasures, community initiatives, pilot studies, and education programs. This plan should be evidence-based by utilizing the collision analysis database to inform its content. To strengthen the Road Safety Action Plan’s resiliency, it should be developed collaboratively across disciplines and contextually to the unique conditions of Ajax’s transportation framework.

► In conjunction with Durham Region and other Regional Municipalities, create a database of KSI collision analysis.

► Develop a Road Safety Management Steering Committee which consists of a broad range of system designers and can inform implementation measures and objectives as the plan develops.

► Coordinate efforts with Durham Region to strengthen programs and continue to align objectives and data- collections methods.

► Develop a monitoring and evaluation framework for Vision Zero and the Road Safety Action Plan which allows for the continual update of the plan as conditions evolve.

6.1.8 Preparing for new mobility technologies

► Review zoning bylaw parking requirements and consider where it may be appropriate to reduce parking minimums due to potentially lower demand over the full building lifecycle; identify strategies to reduce parking demand in the interim on case-by-case basis.

► Review opportunities for implementing electric charging infrastructure at public parking lots / garages for electric vehicles.

► Work with Durham Region to explore establishing a regional working group to track new mobility trends and appropriate policy responses. Members of this working group should include representatives from Durham Region, the local municipalities, Durham Region Transit, Metrolinx, educational institutions, citizen representatives and other relevant industry actors.

► Undertake new mobility audits for any major construction investments.

► Provide as much separated cycling infrastructure on major streets as possible to mitigate future conflict between cyclists and AVs.

► Undertake an AVs pilot project.

► Identify areas of the Town where there is an unmet need for better transit service and explore opportunities for a coordinated program with Durham Region Transit and a ride share provider to improve mobility options.

119

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.5.0

► Explore opportunities to establish a regulatory environment together with Durham Region and Durham Region Transit that integrates micro-transit and ride-sharing services in a manner that complements conventional transit services.

6.1.9 Introducing intelligent transportation systems

► Develop an ITS Strategic Plan.

► Determine key data needs and develop a plan to collect or purchase data through data needs assessment.

► Analyze real-time data to understand the performance of the Town’s existing infrastructure and present these data online.

Agree with proposed trail/bridge over Carruthers Creek, connecting Marjoram Dr.and Greenhalf Cres. This would ease traffic/pollution 102 as need for bussing for kids attending Carruthers Creek Public Active Transportation Opportunity 43.844478 -79.003519 School would decrease as many would be able to walk/bike to school using a safer route than Bayly.

Support expansion of off road trail in this area. This is a beautiful 103 green space and would love to use it for walking/biking in the Active Transportation Opportunity 43.832095 -78.993237 neighbourhood.

Much of this area is marsh through the spring and summer. It accepts runoff from the surrounding area during rainfall and the 116 Active Transportation Opportunity 43.850422 -79.010928 spring thaw. A trail or path at the road level would be much better than constructing a seperate path through the grass area.

I've always wondered why the town hasn't connected up the north end of this already extensive parkland trail to the library/town 117 Active Transportation Opportunity 43.837236 -79.014733 hall/pool complex? I would use it if it were there, and IF it didn't entail riding on Harwood.

With reference to opportunity pointed out to the south of the library/town hall/pool complex... This is where I would have thought the Town might end the extensive parkland trail that already exists 118 in south Ajax. I think this is a prime opportunity to encourage cycling Active Transportation Opportunity 43.850854 -79.019454 to use these facilities. What could be better than taking your kids to the library on their bicycles... IF they don't have to drive on busy streets, e.g. Harwood?

Appendix B: Travel Demand Model Supporting Documentation

2019 Integrated Transportation Master Plan – Final Draft Report v.3.0 Winter 2019

TRAVEL DEMAND MODELLING SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION

B-1. Appendix overview

Appendix B outlines the travel demand modelling process and tools used for forecasting the volumes on the existing road network. For the purposes of this study an AM peak hour auto demand matrix were provided, as well as the regional roadway network. This section provides the following supporting documentation used during the modelling process and is organized the following fashion:

B-1. Appendix overview

B-2. 2011 model performance

B-2a. Roadway network

B-2b. Data validation

B-2. 2011 model performance

The demand matrices were generated by the Regional staff from their existing model, the Durham Region Transportation Planning Model (DRTPM), built in EMME software. The provided network was populated with available traffic counts. Using the available counts the region’s auto demand adjustment factors were updated for the zones in Ajax, and an updated AM peak hour auto demand matrix was produced.

B-2a. Roadway network

The received roadway network was also reviewed to match 2011 conditions. New roadway links were added to the network to increase the roadway granularity in Ajax. Shapes of the links were updated to better reflect the curvature and length of the various roadways. Finally, the properties (speed and capacity) of the existing links were reviewed and updated wherever necessary. The changes to the roadway network are shown in Figure B-1. After the changes were implemented, the updated 2011 AM peak hour auto matrix was re-assigned and the model was then validated with the existing traffic counts.

B-2b. Data validation

With the input data incorporated into the model, the next step was to develop a level of comfort that the model was representing existing conditions reasonably accurately. A popular validation technique used to determine how well the modelled volumes portray the observed volumes is using the co-efficient of determination (R2 value). The R2 value is a statistical measure of the model’s “Goodness of Fit”, with R2 equal to 1 indicating a perfect correlation between the modelled and observed volumes. Figure B-2 illustrates the observed volumes versus the modelled volumes at all the locations where traffic count data was available. For the Ajax model, an R2 value of 0.89 was obtained, which signified a very good correlation between the observed volumes and modelled volumes.

0 0 1000 2000 3000 4000 5000 6000 Modelled Volume

Further validation tests were performed on the model using the maximum desirable percent error method. A percent difference between modelled volumes and counts was calculated for all the count stations. The percent difference was then plotted against their corresponding count volumes. There are both upper and lower limits to model error, which were defined in the NCHRP Report 765. The philosophy of the max desirable percent error (MDE) curve is that errors falling between the curves are unlikely to affect a decision as to the number of lanes on a roadway. For a valid model we expect that majority of the points fall between the max desirable percent error curves. Figure B-3 illustrates the AM peak hour MDE graphs.
