Gatehouse Drive/Lisbon Pines Drive to Branchton Road

About the project

The Region of Waterloo is improving the pedestrian crossings on Myers Road between Branchton Road and Gatehouse Drive/Lisbon Pines Drive. This includes a raised pedestrian crossing in front of Moffat Creek school with curb and gutter, pavement markings, signage, and a “speed hump” to provide greater visibility of the crossing area and help slow down traffic. The crossing distances will also be shortened at the Gatehouse Drive/Lisbon Pines Drive intersection.

This work is part of the interim construction of Myers Road while we continue to design the full reconstruction of the road.

Timing — starts June 30, 2025

Construction will begin on June 30, 2025 and is expected to be complete by July 25, 2025. Construction will take place Monday to Friday between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m.
