Road Improvement Program

What is the Road Improvement Program ?

The Road Improvement Program is part of the Township's Long-Term Plan, helping to ensure a timely, sustainable and economically responsible approach to maintaining and replacing local roadways throughout the Township.

In order to determine the appropriate timing of such works, Staff provide Council the distance, traffic counts and other considerations for each of these road sections.
