Transportation Master Plan

  • 2031 Time Horizon Analysis
  • Vision, Goals, Principles
  • Multi-modal approach to issues
  • Best practices, policies, and programs
  • Micro-simulation and detailed analysis

Typical Approach Mississauga Approach

Typical Class EA approach to a City-wide TMP is not practical for a built-out municipality that needs to retro-fit the road network to be multi-modal

  • 2031 Time Horizon
  • Provides the basis for how transportation funding is spent
  • Uses Municipal Class Environmental Assessment Guidelines
  • Uses traditional strategic transportation modeling tools

2031 Network Conditions

Driving Factors

  • Significant growth

surrounding Mississauga

  • Increase in 905-to-905

travel patterns

  • Increasing traffic outside

the traditional morning and evening rush hour periods

2031 Percentage Increase In GTHA Population Growth

slide-18
SLIDE 18

Transportation In the GTHA

If Current Trends Continue………

  • Average time spent commuting will increase from 82 minutes to 109 minutes
  • Travel time by car from Hamilton to Downtown Toronto will take approximately 3 hours
  • Annual cost of congestion to the GTHA economy will increase from $2.7 billion to $7.2

billion
