Business Coach Business Advisory Associates, Oakville Class Environmental Assessment Trafalgar Road (Regional Road 3) Corridor Improvements Cornwall Road to Highway 407, Town of Oakville PR-2079A & PR-2417A Background Halton Region is initiating a Class Environmental Assessment to consider a wide range of options for transportation corridor improvements, to satisfy future travel demands on Trafalgar Road from Cornwall Road to Highway 407 (see map below). In 2002, Halton initiated a Class Environmental Assessment for improvements to Trafalgar Road from Leighland Avenue/Iroquois Shore Road to Upper Middle Road (Regional Rd 38). Since that time, a number of studies were initiated or completed which have resulted in the need to expand the study area. These studies include Trafalgar Road Feasibility Study, Town of Oakville Draft Midtown Business and Development Plan, North Oakville East Secondary Plan (NOESP) and the Metrolinx Regional Transportation Plan. To this end, the study area has been expanded to include the 8 km section of Trafalgar Road from Cornwall Road south of the QEW, northerly to Highway 407.

A key component of the study will be consultation with interested stakeholders (public and regulatory agencies) at two Public Information Centres (PICs). The PICs will provide stakeholders with an opportunity to meet the Project Team, review the study scope and discuss issues related to the project including alternative solutions, environmental considerations and evaluation criteria.
