The Halton Region is looking to upgrade Trafalgar Road, and they want your opinion.
They are carrying out a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA) Study to help make a decision on how best to improve the local road. These improvements include roadway widening, cross-sectional requirements, active transportation, transit-supportive infrastructure, intersection improvements, and overall traffic operations.
All upgrades to Trafalgar would stretch from Highway 407 to Steeles Avenue. This area is part of the Trafalgar Secondary Plan, which is expected to add 32,000 residents and 4,000 jobs to Milton.
The study is being carried out in accordance with Schedule C of the MCEA, (October 2000, as amended 2007, 2011, 2015 and 2023), which is an approved process under the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act.
A key component of the study is consultation with interested parties (public and review agencies) through Public Information Centres (PIC). The purpose of the first PIC is to review and gather feedback on the study area needs and opportunities, background information, selection of the preferred solution, and next steps in the study.
Anyone with an interest in this study is asked to participate virtually. You can click here to view pre-recorded videos about the study, provide input through an online survey and learn more. The online PIC will be available until Friday, October 18th.
