GREATER TORONTO AND
HAMILTON AREA
AUGUST 2016
ABOUT METROLINX AND THE REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION PLAN As the regional transportation agency for the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA), Metrolinx is committed to planning, building and operating transportation that supports a high quality of life, a thriving, sustainable and protected environment and a strong, prosperous and competitive economy. Under provincial legislation, Metrolinx has a mandate to provide leadership in the co-ordination, planning, financing, development and implementation of an integrated, multi-modal transportation network that conforms with the policies of Ontario’s Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe and complies with other provincial transportation policies and plans in the regional transportation plan area. Metrolinx is also responsible for the operation of the regional transit system, GO Transit, the PRESTO electronic fare payment system and the UP Express airport rail link. Metrolinx works closely with provincial ministries and the region’s municipalities and transit agencies to implement the Regional Transportation Plan, and engages with civic, academic, business and community partners to realize the collective vision for the region’s transportation system, as set out in the Regional Transportation Plan. As Metrolinx embarks on a review of The Big Move – the first Regional Transportation Plan – we are marking a decade of championing multi-modal, connected and integrated mobility solutions in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area. The next Regional Transportation Plan will be made available in mid-2017.

WORKING TOGETHER
The scope and timing of the Regional Transportation Plan review addresses the requirements of
The Metrolinx Act, 2006 and aligns with the Province of Ontario’s review of The Growth Plan for the
Greater Golden Horseshoe, which continues to call for compact development that makes the best use of land in
the region, and an effective and integrated transportation system to keep people and goods moving sustainably.
The two plans work together to direct the region’s population and employment growth to align with the transportation
system. The updated RTP will work in concert with the efforts of the Province to manage growth and address climate

Discussion Paper for the Next Regional Transportation Plan 5
1 Opening Up The Conversation A coordinated and integrated regional transportation plan is essential to address the challenges residents of this region face. The Regional Transportation Plan (The Big Move) is being updated with input from a wide range of partners, stakeholders and the general public. This is the beginning of our year-long conversation to determine the next Regional Transportation Plan.
MANDATE TO REVIEW. The review of the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP)
is a requirement of the Metrolinx Act, 2006, which states that the RTP must be
reviewed at least every ten years.
This discussion paper outlines Metrolinx’s review of the Regional Transportation
Plan. It includes an assessment of progress since 2008 and a look ahead to
opportunities and challenges to inform the future update of the RTP. It invites
readers to answer key questions as part of a public conversation about what
the next plan should try to accomplish, and how.
Using the input received for this discussion paper, Metrolinx and its
municipal partners will work towards the next RTP. A draft updated Regional
Transportation Plan is planned for public comment in mid-2017, with the final
RTP to be completed later that year. An Implementation Plan will follow, to be
developed jointly with municipalities, identifying detailed processes, the roles
of various partners and stakeholders, and a range of investment strategy tools
to put the RTP into action.
Many technical and academic research reports have informed this review and
will inform the development of the next RTP. More information is available at
www.metrolinx.com/theplan.
