Hidden Valley Road Bridge Replacement – Notice of Public Information Centre


news about your communityCity UpdateCity UpdateThe City of Burlington is undertaking a design study to look at options for replacing the Hidden Valley Road bridge over Grindstone Creek. This structure was built in the early 1950s and a recent structure condition survey indicates the bridge is in need of replacement.

There are a number of reconstruction options that can be considered. The options vary in terms of length of construction, capital cost, and the impact on the environment and vehicular traffic.

Before construction takes place, consultation with the public is a key component of the design process.

A Public Information Centre will be held for the public and interested stakeholders (land owners and regulatory agencies) to review and discuss issues related to the study.

Date: Thursday, Jan. 14, 2016 Time: 6:30 to 8 p.m. Location: St. Matthew on-the-Plains Anglican Church, 126 Plains Rd. E., Burlington, Ont, L7T 2C3 (The meeting room is wheelchair-accessible)

A presentation will take place between 7 and 7:30 p.m.

We Want to Hear From You We welcome any comments or input you may have about this bridge replacement project.

If you need further information, would like to be added to the study mailing list, or have comments related to this study, please contact:
