Regardless of anyone's desire to see projects realized the limiting factor of most is finance. That being case I support the decision made by the province in light of the fact that the economy of the province simply cannot bare the expense at the moment. Shelving a plan does not mean that when the budget is reviewed that it will not be implemented again. In reality it is very likely we will see the realization of this project in the not too distant future.

Yes. I agree that the mid-peninsula highway should be reviewed more thoroughly and I also believe that in light of the recent closure of the Burlington Skyway due to an unfortunate accident that we think seriously about an alternative route to the QEW. As a major trade route in our region, it would be wise to look at some form of redundancy both as a safeguard against the type of closure we suffered but also as a way to ease volume on the QEW, which can be a very dangerous stretch of highway through Hamilton. |

I would prefer to see expanded GO TRAIN and bus Service from Fort Erie/Niagara to Hamilton through to Toronto. |

I am not prepared to answer this as I do not know the subject well enough without doing further research. I do know that when the skyway got banged up recently and all the traffic that typically bypasses Hamilton flooded into the city, it was a brutal weekend. We do benefit from highway bypasses. |
