Tow nwants Burioak Drivew idenedtosix lanes, Burlington favoursfour lanes continued from p.14 cancelled due to lack of funding. Some residents are looking forward to the construction reducing traffic gridlock on Burloak Drive. "Burloak is a major bottleneck," said Andrew Halvorsen, who has lived on Fothergill Boulevard since 1994. W hen he first moved to the area, there was nothing but fields. "I've been waiting for this," he said, referring to the road construction. "I really hope they get it done," added Joe Brathwaite, who has been waiting for a while for the Burloak underpass. Brathwaite thought construction was going to start early next year. The Town of Oakville, in conjunction with the City of Burlington, completed an environmental assessment for the grade separation in 1994, to grade-separate Burloak Drive. Then in 2015, Metrolinx outlined plans for electrification of GO Transit routes on the Lakeshore Road West corridor. A feasibility study was done earlier in 2 0 1 7 to review options for grade separating the Burloak Drive road-rail crossing. Both Burlington and Oakville staff reviewed the study and provided comment. Based on this study, and input from municipalities, a six-lane underpass for Burloak Drive is being proposed. Oakville' s position is Burloak Drive should be widened to six lanes, from the existing four, while Burlington maintains the lanes should remain at four. A summary of the comments will be posted at www.metrolinx.com/ burloak. The public will have until Thursday, April 27, to provide feedback to Metrolinx, to have their comments included in the meeting summary. 15 |Thursday, April 6, 2017 | OAKVILLE BEAVER | www.insideHALTON.com SALES PERIOD | A PR IL 6 -12, 2017 O P INTO A STER!
