Seek innovotive funding sources ond strotegies to ensure o more bolonced, sustoinoble tronsportotion

8. Minimize use of fossil fuels * Jronsportotion needs must be met without generating emissions thot threoten public health, global

climote, biologicol diversity or the integrity of essential ecologicol processes.

9. Optimize the existing transportation system Make the most of whot currently exists by preserving and maximizing the use of focilities and services -

support new technologies, occess monogement and tronsportotion system monogement initiatives. Avoid or defer the need for new infrostructure thot does not support this set of gools.

10. Minimize growth in travel demand * Encouroge initiotives ondprogroms thot reduce demands on the tronsportotion system, especially ot peak hours, or reduce the number of vehicles on the roods while accommodating the some number of people.

11. Encourage the efficient movement of freight and support the greater use of freight by rail Support strotegies thot improve freight movement within London’s boundories ond minimize the flow

of heovy trucks through or odjocent to residentiol communities.

12. Develop parking strategies that reduce single-occupant vehicle travel * Develop strotegies thot reduce the demond for porking in the downtown ond ot existing ond future employment centres ond other octivity nodes.

13. Foster awareness of sustainable transportation * Develop programs ond octivities thot enhonce residents’ oworeness ond understanding of the benefits of sustoinoble tronsportotion.

APPENDIX ‘B’ TRANSPORTATION VISION SCENARIOS 1 ’2 & 3

Scenario 1, Sustaining Existing Service Levels - represents a continuation of current trends in the provision of transportation infrastructure and services, land use approaches and policy directions (similar fo Capacity Enhancement Strategy contained in the 200 TMP).

Scenario 2, Balanced Approach - involves a moderate policy shiff relative to current trends aiming at less dependence on the automobile (similar to the Transpodation Strategy contained in the 2004 TMP); and

Scenario 3, Transit Focus - represents a significant policy shiff aimed at substantially less dependence on the automobile (goes beyond the 2004 TMP Transportation Strategy).
