For those who don't know, I'm one of a diverse group of people who form the Metrolinx Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) Advisory Committee (AC). Our job is to analyze the public comment on the Metrolinx discussion papers, and eventually, the RTP that will guide the Greater Toronto / Hamilton Area into the future. I've heard some great ideas on this board, and I hope that this thread can be an idea factory for everything you want me to take to the committee.
Yours,

The AC meeting to discuss the first discussion paper, "Towards Sustainable Transportation" is fast approaching. This paper isn't about where lines on the maps should be drawn, and it's not about what density targets we should be building at (both of those will come later). This paper tries to outline the process that will be used to form the RTP and explains how everyone interested can get their voices heard. So here's one last kick at the can:

This paper tries to outline the process that will be used to form the RTP and explains how everyone interested can get their voices heard. So here's one last kick at the can:
- What do you think about the 5 step consultation process?
- What fundamental goals should Metrolinx keep in mind while developing the RTP?
- What measures of success should be used?
- What best-practices from around the world should Metrolinx incorporate into the regional plan?
