ITE Toronto Section March Breakfast Session - York Region -Transportation Mobility Plan Guidelines for Development Applications

ITE Toronto Section is pleased to present our second breakfast session of 2017, which will introduce members to York Region’s new Transportation Mobility Plan Guidelines for Development Applications. The Guidelines are an update to Region’s Transportation Impact Study Guidelines for Development Applications (2007),  A Transportation Mobility Plan is simply a combination of a multimodal mobility plan along with the traditional transportation impact study analyses, and will focus more on transit, active transportation, and measures that will reduce travel demand and minimize single-occupant vehicles trips to and from proposed developments. A copy of the guidelines can be found at http://www.york.ca
