Integrated Mobility Plan

More people are expected to live in Burlington. The city is planning for future population growth including how people will move through the city.

Over the last 30 years, Burlington's transportation network has accommodated growth by building more roadways. This strategy is no longer sustainable. The city does not have the space to build new roadways and the financial cost to maintain a larger network of roads is significant.

A 21^st century city is built around a different transportation model, one designed to provide people of all ages and abilities with more travel choices for things like walking, cycling and transit.

Burlington's Integrated Mobility Plan

Work on Burlington's Integrated Mobility Plan is underway. The plan is built around eight pillars which, when implemented, will result in a new era of transportation that:

• Provides a wide range of options for getting around regardless of age, means or ability, including walking, cycling, public transit and automobiles

• Uses compact modes of travel like buses, bicycles and walking to efficiently move larger number of people

• Is well connected to transportation systems in surrounding regions

• Offers fast, reliable and more frequent transit

• Features improved facilities and safety for cyclists and pedestrians
