The development and maintenance of Niagara's transportation infrastructure is an economic priority among businesses, government organizations and residents. To encourage economic growth, transportation inadequacies are identified and corrected within short-and long-term periods under the direction of a Regional Transportation Strategy that states the following objectives:
Work toward the achievement of an effective, multi-modal transportation network for Niagara.
Accelerate implementation of the Niagara Region Transportation Strategy and adequately fund its key strategic directions. Key projects to be advanced include:
Expansion of Highway 406 to Welland/Port Colborne
Development of an intra-regional transportation system to ensure that citizens, workers, students, and visitors are able to move easily throughout the region.
Construction of the South Niagara East-West Arterial Corridor.
Development of improved multi-modal transportation hubs and cross border infrastructure.
Construction of a multi-modal Niagara-GTA corridor.
Integrate Niagara's transportation strategy into a larger transportation strategy for the 'Golden Horseshoe' region of Ontario and into the bi-national transportation strategy under development for the Niagara Frontier.
