At the time this report was prepared, the City had a significant backlog of approved projects that had not yet been implemented. New requests for studies will be prioritized against both the backlogged projects and other current requests, in order to identify those studies that, if approved, are likely to be implemented within five years. The five-year period was selected based on the environmental assessment process, which requires that approved projects be reviewed (by means of an addendum) if they are not implemented within that time frame. This period is considered to represent the maximum time an approved ATM project should wait before being implemented, in order to avoid unfairly raising public expectations and diminishing the credibility of the City's Area Traffic Management Program.
