Sandhurst Circle Neighbourhood Connections

The Sandhurst Circle Neighbourhood Connections project aims to improve road safety and cycling connections for people of all ages and abilities in the area of Agincourt North on and around Sandhurst Circle.

Specifically, the project aims to:

  • Provide safer spaces and crossings for people walking and cycling
  • Simplify traffic conditions in school zones
  • Improve connections to local destinations, trails and transit

The project will focus on improving road safety with quick-build materials that will be implemented within the roadway on streets in the project area.

A map showing Finch Avenue East, a west to east arterial road, in the center of the map. McCowan Road, a north to south road is in the middle of the map. Sandhurst Circle is a road that forms a circle around McCowan Road and Finch Avenue East. The project is marked by a thick blue line which covers Sandhurst Circle and a road branching off the northwest part of the circle, a road on the northeast part of the circle and roads on the southwest part of the circle. The map also shows an orange line which represents the existing cycling network which runs alongside Highland Creek which runs north to south on the west side of Sandhurst Circle, along Huntingwood Drive which runs west to east and is south of Finch Avenue, and along the Finch Hydro Corridor which is runs west to east north of Finch, just south of McNicoll Avenue.

Improvements will be considered on Sandhurst Circle and Brimwood Boulevard, Chartland Boulevard, Dibgate Boulevard and White Heather Boulevard.

Public opinion, along with technical and policy considerations, will be used to inform staff recommendations and decisions made by City Council.

The Sandhurst Circle Neighbourhood Connections project involves two phases of engagement.

In Phase One, the City will engage key interest groups, including the schools in the project area and Woodside Square Mall. Input from Phase One will inform proposed changes to street design.

In Phase Two, the City will consult the public on the proposed changes to street design. Phase Two is planned for early spring in 2026, at which time proposed designs will be shared. The public will have an opportunity to learn about the proposed changes, ask questions and provide feedback.

Vision Zero Road Safety Plan: This project is part of the Vision Zero Road Safety Plan, which aims to eliminate traffic-related fatalities and serious injuries by making our roads safer for everyone, especially for seniors, school children, pedestrians and people cycling. 

Cycling Network Plan: The City Council approved 2025-2027 Near Term Implementation Program includes new cycling connections in the area of Sandhurst Circle that aim to connect gaps in the network and people to places and grow the cycling network in parts of the city.
