Purpose
In 2022, Oxford County initiated a 2024 update of the 2019 Transportation Master Plan (TMP). The TMP is a long-term strategic transportation planning document that lays out the County’s vision and goals for its transportation system over the next 20 years. The TMP considers population and employment growth in the County and accommodation of future transportation conditions, while also considering sustainable and multi-modal transportation solutions and specific needs of the County, including people and goods movement along with agricultural mobility.
Scope
Key objectives of the 2024 TMP update included:
- assessment of existing and future transportation network conditions and performance with consideration of travel demands and patterns.
- identification of transportation system needs and development of policies to address them; and,
- develop a safe, effective, and financially viable integrated transportation system implementation plan that maximizes the use of existing County infrastructure and promotes regional connectivity.
The final plan lays out Oxford County’s strategic roadmap for multi-modal transportation infrastructure and services through to 2046. Through various studies, research, data collections, and two extensive public consultation phases started in 2022, the draft plan puts forward strategies to address existing and future needs for:
- the County’s road network;
- active transportation, for instance cycling and pedestrian routes;
- goods movement, such as rail freight, trucking, etc.;
- people movement, e.g., commuting infrastructure; and,
- transportation system sustainability and new technologies, such as electric or autonomous vehicles.
Although it considers a more than 20-year window for action, the master plan is intended to be revisited and updated on a five-year schedule.
