Rodrigues, Dan No Failing to have an alternate roadway from Fort Erie to Toronto is costing our City millions of dollars in infrastructure costs due to increased local road use from Provincial traffic. This was most prevalent during the closure of the Skyway Bridge. While Hamilton should continue to properly allocate and categorize our roadways, we should not be burdened with traffic destined for other locations other than Hamilton. Our City also requires a proper ‘through-way’ map, to eliminate unnecessary traffic on our City streets. New York City has done a great job of allocating road use maps, which allows for proper distribution of the variety of transportation modems. There is no reason why Hamilton cannot reach similar road mapping.
