Initially, Technical Advisory Groups (TAGs), comprised of municipal and provincial stakeholders, will identify the strengths, define the needs, and outline the gaps and challenges of the region’s transportation network. Metrolinx will then analyze local, national and international examples of how these gaps and challenges have been overcome, and determine if those examples may be applied to the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA).
The TAGs will make recommendations before the draft paper is presented to the Metrolinx Board for approval. These recommendations will address investment opportunities, programs and policies aimed at improving the performance of our system, new and/or revised legislation to improve system efficiency, and actions that we can take to implement the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP). Once approved by the Board, the papers will be released for public and stakeholder input.
