<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>Similar to a census tract, a traffic zone is a small, relatively permanent statistical subdivision of a geographic area in which land uses and travel characteristics within each zone is assumed to be homogeneous. Traffic zone boundaries typically follow visible and identifiable features, such as roads, rivers, canals, railroads, and above-ground high-tension power lines, but may follow governmental unit boundaries and other non-visible features in some instances. Over time, these boundaries may shift or be subdivided to better represent the land uses of an area. York Region along with other local and regional municipalities in the Greater Toronto Area and Hamilton (GTA+H) maintain a common Traffic Zone system coordinated by the Joint Program in Transportation Data Management Group at the University of Toronto, however, each region is responsible for defining the traffic zones within its boundaries. Within York, these boundaries are determined in coordination with Planning and Development Services Department and Transportation and Works Department.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
