Municipality of Clarington Report PWD-012-21 Report Overview Page 2 This report is to provide Council with an update of the road rationalization process with the Region of Durham. 1. Background 1.1 The Region of Durham initiated a region -wide Road Network Rationalization Study in 2016 to identify roads that should be transferred from the Region to the Local Area Municipalities (LAM), and vice versa. The Region of Durham information reports #2018-INFO-31 and #2018-INFO-138 provide a more detailed description of the history and study methodology and present the findings of the study. 1.2 An initial list of roads for consideration was developed through consultation with the Region and the LAM. Each road was evaluated based on several criteria to determine if it serves more of a local or regional function and character. The study considered the current function as well as the future 2031 conditions. 1.3 Proposed Region to Local Transfer Regional Road 17 / Main Street from Winter Road to Taunton Road in Orono. 1.4 Proposed Local to Region Transfer Holt Road from Highway 401 to Highway 2 Boundary Road from Highway 35 to Highway 115 1.5 The roads identified to be transferred are shown on Attachment 1. 1.6 Staff from Clarington and the Region met on December 7, 2020 to discuss the process for moving ahead with the transfers. It was agreed that Clarington staff would provide this report to inform Council of the results of the road rationalization study and continue to work with Regional staff to ensure that the transfers take place in an equitable manner so Clarington does not take on additional capital or maintenance burden. It was agreed that staff would work towards completion of the process by early 2022. 1.7 Staff will report back to Council with further details at a future General Government Committee meeting.
