The proposed addendum to this bill goes against any sensible urban planning or environmental review. This addendum will remove infrastructure without any analysis of the environmental and other impacts of the removal.

Further, the environmental impacts of the development of the infrastructure will not be amortized over the full lifespan of the project. In the case of University Avenue, we will be destroying infrastructure that is less than 2 years old.

Any plans to modify infrastructure should be subject to environmental review, city approval, and other normal oversights. The ministry has not provided any evidence that these changes will have any positive impact on traffic or environmental factors.
