Project update: October 2022

The County of Brant has completed its Transportation Master Plan update.

The Plan recommends solutions that respond to the following needs and opportunities:

• Rapid growth: Meet the needs of existing and future travel demand
• Localized issues: Improve road network safety and operations
• Goods movement: Ensure efficient goods movement
• Active transportation: Make active transportation more attractive
• Public transit: Grow transit connections and coverage within, to and from the County of Brant

What we learned

Two rounds of consultation were held throughout the study, including a public survey, live public meeting and two stakeholder meetings. Feedback received shaped the Plan and ensures solutions meaningfully respond to local desires, which highlighted an interest in:

• Improved safety and road operations
• Support for cycling connections
• Improved transit
• The need to respond to congestion in and around Paris

The draft Transportation Master Plan Summary Report was presented to Council on September 27, 2022. The County of Brant hosted a public review period from November 1, 2022 to December 9, 2022.
