Strategic Transportation Network Review

The City of Hamilton is conducting a strategic transportation network review to support Hamilton’s growth. The City is expected to grow by 236,000 people and 122,000 jobs by 2051. This anticipated growth will create more travel demand and the need for additional transportation infrastructure to manage this demand, while protecting the environment, supporting economic development, and maintaining a high quality of life.

The strategic transportation network review will update the road, transit, and active transportation projects identified in the City’s 2018 Transportation Master Plan and the City’s Growth Related Integrated Development Strategy (GRIDS 2) to reflect a 2041 planning horizon with consideration for 2041 - 2051. The strategic network review will also serve as input to the 2024 Development Charges by-law update. Overall the strategic network review will:

• Align with the 2018 Transportation Master Plan vision and desired outcomes.
• Include other supporting transportation infrastructure such as maintenance facilities.
• Include the anticipated timing of each project.
• Include updated costs of each project.
