Public Notice MILL STREET CLASS ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT STUDY MISSISSAUGA ROAD TO CREDITVIEW ROAD

The Study
The Town of Caledon is currently undertaking an Environmental Assessment (EA) for the reconstruction of Mill Street between Mississauga Road and Creditview Road. The project is being completed as a Schedule “B” project in accordance with the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (October 2000, as amended in 2007, 2011 & 2015).


Public Input & Study Recommendations
Preliminary recommendations were presented at the first Public Information Centre (PIC), October 5, 2021, with additional alternatives for pedestrian accommodations presented at the second PIC, June 15, 2022. In consideration of the feedback received during and following PIC # 2, recommendations for Mill Street have been developed including:
• Maintain existing roadway pavement width and slightly widen at curves to accommodate truck and snow plow turning movements;
• Maintain the existing road alignment, including the S-curve;
• Maintain rural roadway characteristic with curb and gutter reinstated only in existing locations;
• Maintain existing ditches with new subdrain, soak away pits to improve drainage;
• Cross culvert improvement;
• No designated pedestrian facility (Option #1 presented at PIC #2 and shown below);
• Pedestrian crossing improvements at the Caledon Trailway;
• New guiderail where required by standards;
• Minimize property/tree impact during the road enhancement where possible;
• Streetlighting improvements (types and locations to be confirmed); and
• Additional traffic calming measures to be recommended during detailed design.
An example typical cross-section of the study recommendations is provided below.

Next Steps
Upon completion of the PIC Summary Report comment period, a Project File Report (PFR), containing details of the Municipal Class EA planning and decision-making process, public consultation process and study recommendations will be made available for a 30-day public review period, concluding the EA study. A Notice of Completion will be issued at that stage.
Once this EA study is complete, the Town will move forward to the detailed design stage. Due to utility relocation and permitting consideration, the anticipated road construction is expected in 2025, subject to budget approval.
