County Road 31 Underpass Replacement
|
The Highway 401 underpass at County Road 31 is located near Morrisburg, in the Municipality of South Dundas.
The replacement of the Highway 401 underpass at County Road 31 involves the following components:
During overnight closures of Highway 401 and County Road 31, as well as during temporary closures of the Highway 401 ramps, traffic is proposed to be detoured via County Road 31, County Road 2, County Road 41 (Upper Canada Road) and County Road 1 (Carman Road), as required. This study is being carried out in accordance with the approved environmental planning process for Group ‘B’ projects under the MTO Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) for Provincial Transportation Facilities (2000), with the opportunity for public input throughout the study. Upon completion of the study, a Transportation Environmental Study Report (TESR) will be prepared, and filed for a 30-day public review period. At that time, newspaper notices will be published, letters will be sent to the project mailing list, and the website will be updated to explain the review process and identify locations where the TESR can be reviewed. |
