Transportation Master Plan
What is this project about?
The City of Stratford recently updated its Transportation Master Plan (TMP). A TMP is a long-range planning document that will guide changes to the City’s transportation system, for all modes of travel, over the coming decades. The TMP also identifies transportation policies and strategies that, when combined with recommended infrastructure projects, will help the City achieve its vision for the future. The TMP will be the second master planning study for the City’s transportation network – the first was released in 2010.
The final TMP was adopted by Stratford City Council in November, 2023.
The final report with appendices is now available in the Document Library.
