• Northfield Drive East and Bridge Street (New crossride installation on the south leg of the intersection for the existing multi-use trail, including protection intersection improvements by realigning/reducing crosswalk widths on the other legs of the intersection)
• Erb Street West and Caroline Street (PROVISIONAL – Subject to Final Design Approval) – intersection improvements, including adding crossrides on the west, north, and east legs of the intersection. It also includes enlarging the existing right-turn channelized island and relocating one train control arm to make it safer and provide more space for pedestrians/cyclists while trying to get through this intersection.

  • Note the expected timeline for completion is by the end of August 2026 before the Fall 2026 school year starts.
• Victoria Street between west of Lancaster Street to East of Weber Street (isolated sidewalk panel removal and replacement, curb repairs)
  • Note: the work is anticipated to begin on or around June 24 for approximately one week. There will be localized lane closures; however, traffic will be maintained in both directions.
