To accomplish this vision, the CMP is comprised of a series of projects to be completed over a multi-year period (currently scheduled 2016-2020), covering nine key focus areas. As part of the program mandate, City Council has directed the General Manager, Transportation Services, to report back to the Infrastructure and Environment Committee on the status of the CMP on a regular basis.
