Transportation Systems
Description
This program of work captures the City-wide transportation system assets valued at over $1.2 billion which is the City’s largest asset portfolio. This program of work focuses on restoration, renewal and resurfacing, expansion to accommodate growth, technology upgrades and service improvements as supported through the City’s master plans and the Official Plan. The City is currently performing an update to the Transportation Master Plan that will guide the future investment in these services and affect the longer-term forecasted projects in terms of timing and scope.
Capital projects are based on the recommended life cycle rehabilitation work as reported in the structure inspection reports. These projects are then aligned with the reconstruction of streets, underground infrastructure improvements, and active transportation planning to prioritize work and optimize planning. The need for road widening, turning lanes or bike facilities is determined by the City’s master plans as well as overall growth plans.
