Town of Caledon Urban Design Study
The Town of Caledon has completed the Streetscape and Urban Design Study for Caledon East, which includes elements along the Airport Road corridor. Although the two projects are separate, the Region and the Town of Caledon are working collaboratively to include various elements of the Streetscape and Urban Study in the Airport Road Improvement project. Improvements to the right-of-way are part of the Region’s scope of work, while the Town’s Study includes the land use in the areas immediately surrounding the right-of-way. The Region is collaborating with the Town where it is appropriate.
Roundabout education
The redesign of Airport Road will involve the construction of two roundabouts, one of which will act as a gateway to the community.
Roundabouts improve traffic flow, slow down vehicles, reduce the chances of serious collisions and improve pedestrian and cyclist safety. They'll also be built to accommodate larger vehicles or farm equipment.
Learn more about roundabouts.
