The City of Vaughan is extending Bass Pro Mills Drive from Highway 400 to Weston Road – and we want to hear your thoughts on our plans!
A Municipal Class Environmental Assessment conducted in 2022 determined the extended Bass Pro Mills Drive should feature new signalized intersections, sidewalks, cycling facilities, streetscaping features and more.
We want your feedback!
The City is hosting an Open House on Monday, April 7 for residents to learn more about this project, review designs and speak directly to the project team. Here are the details:
- Location: Vellore Village Community Centre (1 Villa Royale Ave.)
- Time: Drop by any time from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.
Following the Open House, materials will be available online at vaughan.ca/BassProMillsDrive for review and comments until Monday, April 21.
Why is the City undertaking the Bass Pro Mills Drive Extension?
The Bass Pro Mills Drive Extension is one of the key infrastructure projects identified in the Council-approved Nine Point Action Plan to Fight Traffic Gridlock in Vaughan. Extending Bass Pro Mills Drive, from Highway 400 to Weston Road, was recommended in the Vaughan Mills Centre Secondary Plan to:
- provide a new east-west multi-modal connection between Highway 400 and Weston Road.
- help alleviate traffic congestion along Rutherford Road.
- support future growth and development within the plan area.
- create new multi-modal transportation connections.
- develop a safe and comfortable environment for active transportation users.
