Highway 7 - Kitchener to Guelph

[SammyOES2]

Ijmorlan, so basically you have strong opinions about the EA process and about the budgeting numbers w/o any actual knowledge of what the EA process was and what the actual numbers are?

Here are some numbers I found:  "Back in 2007, the budget of the new highway was estimated at $300 million. There has not been a new estimate since."  Let's double it and adjust for inflation and call it $700 million.  

That's not paying for: "both an interurban and improved transit access at the Guelph end, together with improvements to the existing road".  And of course without a highway or brand new route/track to Guelph - your transit service is going to be extremely poor because its along an extremely congested road through heavily developed areas.

Edit: And of course, you also need improved transit all along the route through the new developments.  Because the people living in the subdivisions need to get from their living place to this highway 7 public transportation.
