The City of
Toronto initiated a Class Environmental Assessment (EA) Study
to address existing traffic safety and operational concerns and
long term mobility needs in the Scarlett Road/St. Clair Avenue/Dundas
Street area.
Update - February 2008
The Environmental Study Report (ESR) for the EA is complete. Please review:
Background
The intersections of Scarlett Road with Dundas Street West and with
St. Clair Avenue West are located approximately 50 metres apart.
An east-west CP Galt Subdivision Rail line is located between the
two intersections and is grade-separated from Scarlett Road by means
of a steel beam bridge. This bridge restricts sight lines along
Scarlett Road, and prevents some larger vehicles from using Scarlett
Road at this location with its low vertical clearance of 4.1 metres.
The close proximity of the intersections of Dundas Street West and
St. Clair Avenue West with Scarlett Road, and the physical and operational
constraints associated with the bridge results in a less than desirable
situation. In November 2001, the City of Toronto undertook a Feasibility
Study to identify improvements to the Scarlett Road/St. Clair Avenue/Dundas
Street area.

Purpose of
this study
This study defined safety and operational problems on this section of Scarlett Road, developed and evaluated a reasonable range of alternative solutions to address these problems, and identified a preferred solution in consultation with the public and regulatory agencies. The study was carried out in accordance with the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (June 2000) process, which is approved under the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act.
