The Transportation Master Plan (TMP) & accompanying Active Transportation Plan was adopted by Council in September 2019.
The TMP is a long-range transportation plan to help plan for people moving, goods moving and to connect you to where you need to go. It will be used as a blueprint and guide for future decision making, planning, design, operations and maintenance of the Town’s transportation network until the year 2031 and beyond.
The TMP outlines a vision and approach to help achieve the Town’s objectives for a connected, continuous, safe, efficient and enjoyable transportation network that addresses future growth and helps to enhance quality of life for residents.
