Functional Designs
The City of Vaughan is committed to improving road safety and connectivity across the City for all modes of transportation whether you are walking, riding a bike, taking transit or driving.
Improving Transportation in the Ward 4 Community
As part of the MoveSmart initiative, throughout 2022 and 2023 the City of Vaughan Corridor Reviews along Valley Vista Drive and Pleasant Ridge Avenue. A corridor refers to a linear road and its associated land uses. These reviews examined the current and future transportation planning and mobility infrastructure needs for the specific area under review.
Additionally, the City worked on a City-wide Neighbourhood Traffic Calming Plan to determine which traffic calming tools are best suited for Vaughan. Carrville Corners was selected as one of five neighourhoods to pilot specific traffic calming measures. These measures were tested along Freedom Trail, Peter Rupert Avenue, District Avenue, among other streets.
These studies provided residents with the opportunity to provide input on transportation improvements for their neighbourhoods.
Based on your feedback, the City is now finalizing the designs for transportation enhancements for the following streets in Ward 4:
- District Avenue
- Freedom Trail
- Lealinds Road
- Peter Rupert Avenue
- Petticoat Road
- Pleasant Ridge Avenue
- Thomas Cook Avenue
- Valley Vista Drive
