Have your say at the upcoming public information centre (PIC) on the Bradford Bypass highway on Wednesday, Nov. 24.
The Bradford Bypass will be a 16.2-kilometre, controlled access freeway to connect Highway 400 and Highway 404 with proposed full and partial interchanges, and grade-separated crossings. The route extends from Highway 400 between the 8th Line and the 9th Line in Bradford West Gwillimbury, will cross a small portion of King Township, and will connect to Highway 404 between Queensville Sideroad and Holborn Road in East Gwillimbury.
The current study proposes preliminary design refinements to the route alignment and interchanges, design standard updates to the freeway interchanges and grade-separated crossings at local roads and watercourses, including new bridges over the Holland River and Holland River East Branch. This project will also include design integration with planned work on Highway 400, such as the design development for the replacement of the 9th Line structure on Highway 400.
The preferred preliminary design alternatives will be presented at PIC #2. PIC #2 is being hosted virtually through the Zoom platform where you will be able to learn more about the preliminary design study and assessment of environmental impacts.
Public Information Centre (PIC) #2 will be hosted virtually on Nov. 24, 2022, from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m., Eastern Standard Time (EST) through the Zoom platform where residents will be able to learn more about the preliminary design study and assessment of environmental impacts.
At the beginning of the live event, the Bradford Bypass Project Team will provide an overview of the project followed by a live comment and response period.
Registration is required to participate in the live event for PIC #2 and can be completed on the Project Website.
The PIC #2 materials will be made available on the Project Website for a two-week stakeholder review period beginning the morning of Nov. 24, 2022, and ending on Dec. 8, 2022.
The Project Team encourages residents to attend PIC #2 to be able to learn more about key topics and receive additional project information.
A PIC #2 Comment Form can be found online on the Project Website on Nov. 24, 2022, until Dec. 8, 2022.
As part of the project-specific assessment of environmental impacts under Ontario Regulation 697/21 and the 2002 Approved Environmental Assessment, the ministry will prepare and file a draft Environmental Impact Assessment Report (EIAR). The draft EIAR will be made available for public review and comment, and will be posted to the Project Website, in accordance with Section 26 of Ontario Regulation 697/21.
