North Grenville Mobility Master Plan Survey

North Grenville Mobility Master Plan Survey

Help shape the future of Mobility for the Municipality of North Grenville!
A Mobility Master Plan (MMP) is a long-term plan that will help guide the development and expansion of the Municipality of North Grenville’s transportation system for the next 20 years and beyond.

The MMP will replace the Municipality’s current Transportation Master Plan and Commuter Cycling Plan, while developing an Active Transportation Plan to set strategies and policies that support planned growth and align with the community’s transportation vision.

It will also identify infrastructure projects to support travel throughout North Grenville - whether by cycling, driving, walking, or other modes of transportation.

We are currently in Phase 1 of our project which focuses on gathering input and ideas regarding the current state of transportation in North Grenville as well as future desires for improvement.

This survey will take approximately 15 minutes to complete and focuses on 3 key themes: MMP Vision and Goals, Existing and Planned Transportation Networks, and Transportation Problems and Opportunities.

We appreciate your time and input; the feedback you provide will be valuable to the Mobility Master Planning process.

Section 2 – MMP Vision and Goals
A topic specific municipal implementation plan like the MMP typically includes a vision statement which defines what the plan wishes to achieve. It is meant to be future focused and ambitious but also achievable.

Visions statements are typically supported by a series of goals which help to add more detail to the vision statement including more specific areas of focus, targets to achieve or statements of intent. Draft vision statement options have been prepared as well as potential goals. Please review the options and provide your input to help us determine the foundational statements of the plan.

13. There are three options for a mobility vision statement for North Grenville. Please review the vision statements and rank them to indicate your degree of support from 1 to 5 where 1 indicates not supportive and 5 indicates very supportive. Please note that there is no wrong answer it is about what you think best represents or captures mobility in North Grenville.

	1	2	3	4	5
Option #1 – Branded and Simple. “Our Mobility Future - Future Focused, Future Ready.”
Option #2 – Short and Effective. “Mobility in North Grenville means access, safety, comfort and connectivity for all – your way, your choice, your future.”
Option #3 – Detailed and Descriptive “North Grenville is focused on providing an integrated, accessible and connected transportation and mobility system that is responsive and reflective of municipal priorities around growth and sustainability. People are able to move with ease both now and in the future, giving them choice no matter the trip type, purpose or destination.”

14. Is there anything you would like us to consider changing or adding about your preferred statement?

15. There are a series of proposed goals which have been identified which are meant to help to provide additional detail and clarity around the vision statement. Goals set the direction and are intended to be used to ensure that the plan aligns with high-level community values and directions either previously articulated or newly formed. Please review some of the potential goals and indicate how relevant you think they are to the MMP and more specifically North Grenville.
