Church Street Improvements

Class Environmental Assessment Study

The Town of Ajax has retained R.V. Anderson Associates Limited to undertake a Schedule 'C' Class Environmental Assessment  for proposed improvements to Church Street from Taunton Road to Rossland Road.

Based on the Town's growth projections associated with the A9 Secondary Plan and the 2008 Development Charge Background Study, Church Street between Taunton Road and Rossland Road needs to be reconstructed. Before the road can be reconstructed an Environmental Assessment (EA) is required.

Church Street Study Area

The study area includes Church Street from Taunton Road to Rossland Road. This section of Church Street is a 2-lane, undivided, rural roadway. There is an existing 2 lane bridge structure over East Duffins Creek with a span of approximately 18 m.

In 2009, the Region of Durham widened Taunton Road from 2 to 4 lanes and added traffic signals at the intersection of Taunton Road and Church Street. As part of the signal construction, Church Street was widened from Taunton Road to approximately 150 m south of Taunton Road to accommodate turn lanes.
Also in 2009, the Town of Ajax completed a Schedule 'C' Class Environmental Assessment for improvements to Rossland Road.
