Welcome
The Ontario Ministry of Transportation (MTO) has initiated a Preliminary Design and
Class Environmental Assessment Study to determine the long-term strategy to address
the rehabilitation needs of the section of Highway 401 between Warden Avenue and
Brock Road. This project will also include contract sequencing for the recommended
highway improvements, safety and operational improvements, and consideration of
transit friendly initiatives. The project limits are located in the Cities of Toronto and
Pickering.
Alternatives will be generated and evaluated based on technical and environmental
factors and in consultation with the public, stakeholders, municipalities and government
agencies. At the end of the study a Transportation Environmental Study Report will be
prepared, which will document the recommended rehabilitation strategy for this section
of Highway 401 along with the process leading to the selection of the recommended
plan.
This study will follow the approved planning process for a Group 'B' project under the
MTO Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) for Provincial Transportation Facilities (2000).
