About the consultation

Approximately $15 billion over 10 years is available for investments in roads, bridges, transit and other critical infrastructure outside of the Greater Toronto Hamilton Area (GTHA).

In partnership with regions and communities, the government needs to design programs and identify projects that will drive economic growth and address critical local, regional and provincial infrastructure needs.

Moving Ontario Forward: Outside the Greater Toronto Hamilton Area discussion paper presents ideas and questions to get the conversation going, so we can get your advice and comments, and discuss our shared priorities for infrastructure projects in Ontario.

Why this is important

Your input will help the government develop the best programs and create the framework that will determine how we choose the next generation of investments that prioritize and evaluate infrastructure needs based on economic, social and environmental returns.

This framework will be used to select the next generation of infrastructure investments that:

  • improve the competitiveness of Ontario’s communities
  • enhance productivity
  • create jobs
  • promote innovation
  • develop new economic opportunities
  • address critical needs
