Highway 15 Improvement - Recommendation from Council

Council has passed a recommendation that the Ministry of Transport revert to their original 2007 plan for the section of Highway 15 where it intersects with County Road 42. The original 2007 plan would have considerably improved the level of visibility and safety to our residents crossing over Highway 15, the current plan does not.

Council also requested that local residents who have an interest in this intersection, directly send a letter to Minister Kathleen Wynne (minister@mto.gov.on.ca), Ontario Minister of Transportation.
