This report is part of a series of background and proposal papers prepared for a review of the official plan for the Muncipality of Metropolitan Toronto, covering the cities of Toronto, Etobicoke, York, North York and Scarborough and the Borough of East York. The official plan is based on a transportation system consisting of a transit network (buses, streetcars, intermediate capacity transit, and subway) and a road network (urban expressways and arterial roads) which are supported by provincial (highways and inter-regional transit - GO) and local (collector and local roads) transportation networks, concentrating on urban transit. This paper examines the future conditions that are expected to impact the Metro road network, and the challenges and issues that will have to be addressed. It also outlines new and expanded official plan policies which place greater emphasis on the planning and operation of the Metro road system.
