RCCAO commends the Government of Ontario for prioritizing infrastructure investment and recognizing how important it is for the economic growth and competitiveness of Ontario communities. [...] That is why it is so important that the Government of Ontario advance the construction of transformational projects like Highway 413 and the Bradford Bypass that are essential to the province’s future. [...] In addition to focusing on building new infrastructure, it is also imperative for the Government to invest in the maintenance of current infrastructure assets across the province. [...] Maintaining infrastructure in a state-of-good-repair also maximizes the lifespan of infrastructure assets so that Ontario taxpayers get the best value for their money, while also decreasing the risk of disruptions for services that millions of residents rely on. [...] It is incumbent upon the Government of Ontario and Ontario One Call to ensure that it develops and executes automatic accountability measures, including penalties and fines (administrative monetary penalties), to address any delays in the delivery of locates.
