Register for one of three GTA West workshops in the coming weeksThe Ministry of Transportation (MTO) has initiated Stage 2 of the Environmental Assessment (EA) Study for the GTA West Transportation Corridor. Building on the recommendations from Stage 1, the EA Study is continuing with a focus on identifying the route and developing the preliminary design for a new transportation corridor within the previously identified Route Planning Study Area. The new transportation corridor will include a 400-series highway, transitway and potential goods movement priority features. As part of the study, a preferred route and interchange locations will be selected and developed. As part of the study's consultation program, a number of community consultation workshops will be held at project milestones to allow the project team to exchange project information and input with the public. The GTA West project team was obliged to postpone the introductory community consultation workshops scheduled for May. These workshops have been rescheduled for the evenings of July 24 in Woodbridge, July 29 in Mississauga and Aug. 13 in Brampton. Identical information will be presented at each workshop, and there will be the same opportunities to provide input to the project team. The focus of this first round of workshops is to provide an overview of the study objectives, process and timelines, and to provide an opportunity for attendees to apply for participation in the Community Advisory Group (CAG) and the Greenbelt Transportation Advisory Group (GTAG). Some of the interactive activities will include providing input on key issues and existing features within the study area to be considered in the development of the route and interchange alternatives, as well as providing input on where the route should go. Those who are interested in attending one of the workshops are asked to contact Trish Martins at 905-747-1743, or MTO at 1-877-522-6916 by July 11 to register. Confirmation of intent to attend one of the workshops will be necessary to ensure adequate accommodations. As such, it will not be possible to accommodate those who do not RSVP in advance. |
