Attn: Minister of Transportation, Hon. Prabmeet Sarkaria;


There are so many problems with the Bradford Bypass, but the province of Ontario is steamrolling this project through.

We are requesting that the Ministry of Transportation Ontario: 

• 
  Publicly release the traffic studies, clearly indicating the points of origin and time savings to justify this project; 
• 
  Do a value for money audit of this project comparing it to regional road and public transit alternatives; 
• 
  If traffic studies and the evaluation of alternatives justify it, pay for regional road improvements;
• 
  Plan for sustainable transportation. Prioritise getting Lake Simcoe watershed area GO stations built: Innisfil Orbit, Barrie Waterfront; and all day two way electrification of the GO line;
• 
  Complete studies that are not being done - impacts to Lake Simcoe, cumulative climate impacts, cumulative health assessments and cumulative water impacts;
• 
  Use a salt alternative on the Bradford Bypass, Highway 404, and other provincial highways that negatively affect freshwater.
  
  
  Please join us in supporting more sustainable development and better accountability by those elected to represent us.
