6. 6 Physical Road Improvements Alone Can’t Alleviate Congestion on Peel’s Arterial Roads Peel Arterial Roads will be Congested Even with All Recommended Improvements

7. 7 Future Regional Network Performance: Capacity Deficiency in Morning Peak Hour on Screen Lines 2001201120212031 V/C Ratio Higher than 0.9 0.9 or lower Legend Base Case: 10 Year Capital Plan Development Charges By-Law

8. 8 Future Regional Network Performance: Morning Peak Hour on Screen Lines (After Recommended Improvements) 201120212031 Base Case and Recommended Road Improvements V/C Ratio Higher than 0.9 0.9 or lower Legend

9. 9 Additional Transit/TDM Options Tested Scenario NameScenario Description and Assumptions Transit Mode Split ScenarioTTMP and Mississauga transit mode split assumptions for years 2011 and 2021 Increased transit mode split for GO lines corridors Auto Occupancy and Alternative Modes Scenarios Increase in auto occupancy and decrease in total travel demand Peak Hour Spreading Scenario Decrease in peak hour factors for aggregated trip interchanges Combined ScenarioThe scenarios combine modal split assumptions, auto occupancy assumptions, and peak hour spreading assumptions

17. 17 Typical ROW Requirements  Above requirements do not include streetscaping or transit needs.  Road widening can be accommodate in narrower ROW, if necessary and in specific circumstances

18. 18 Constraints to Road Widening and ROW Expansion  Physical Constraints - Constraints due to existing residential, industrial or commercial land uses  Financial Constraints - Expected high cost of acquiring additional ROW  Legal Constraints - Expected legal complications in acquiring ROW
