Paris Road-Golf Road and Trunk Watermain Environmental Assessment Studies

The Study

The City of Brantford has initiated a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment study (Study) for improvements to Paris Road and Golf Road and the extension of the trunk watermain in the vicinity of Highway 403, Canadian National Railway and surrounding area.

The roadway project will be carried out as a Schedule C study under the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA) February 2024 and the trunk watermain project as a Schedule B study. The road and watermain EAs are being undertaken concurrently due to the proximity of the projects.
