Why is the DRTP proposal being carried forward into the next stage of the study?
The P/NF Study identified that the DRTP proposal does not provide sufficient capacity to meet the long-term needs of the network. However, the DRTP proposal, in conjunction with other alternatives (i.e. another new/expanded crossing) may provide sufficient capacity to serve the projected travel demand. No decisions have been made as to whether the recommended plan for the border should be one new/ expanded crossing or more than one. Further, no decisions regarding the locations for a new/expanded crossing have been made by the Partnership.
