A public information centre is being put together on a Planning, Preliminary Design, and Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) Study on Highway 401.
In a notice from the Ministry of Transportation, the study will look at the “replacement and rehabilitation of bridges and culverts, interchange modifications, and identifying the future Highway 401 footprint for an interim six lanes and ultimate eight lanes.”
The MTO says the purpose of the study is to identify a recommended plan moving forward.
The first Public Information Centre for the study looks to display and seek input on the preliminary improvement alternatives, the existing conditions in the study area (i.e. natural, social, economic, and cultural), and answer questions about the study.
It will take place on February 22 from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. in the Duncan Auditorium at Duncan McDonald Memorial Community Gardens.
