Why is a Highway Based Solution Needed – Why can we just expand transit initiatives and improve other modes of transportation?
Notwithstanding the positive improvements mentioned above, by the year 2031, roadway congestion will still exist and additional highway capacity will be necessary to meet the future transportation needs. The Project Team has developed alternatives to address the identified transportation system deficiencies including rail, transit, marine, and air as well as Transportation Demand Management, Transportation System Management initiatives, and transit improvements beyond that identified by Metrolinx and GO Transit. Our analysis has identified that additional roadway capacity will be required to realize the vision of a more efficient transportation network that provides user choices and balance. As outlined in the draft Transportation Development Strategy (presented at PIC #4), this includes a combination of strategic widening of existing highways and protecting for new transportation corridors.
