In 2008, the City of Vaughan undertook an Environmental Assessment (EA) study to identify existing and future transportation issues and opportunities in a study area identified as Block 33 (PDF). This block is bounded by Teston Road to the north, Jane Street to the east, Major Mackenzie Drive to the south and Weston Road to the west, with Highway 400 dividing the overall study area. AECOM was the consultant retained to lead the EA study and extensive public consultation process.
In December 2013, Council approved the EA study, which determined the preferred solution to be a bridge built over Highway 400 at Canada Drive and America Avenue. Work is currently underway to design the new bridge, and construction is anticipated to begin by spring 2022.
GET INVOLVED!
Engagement on the Canada Drive - America Avenue Bridge is now closed.
Vaughan values public participation and is dedicated to having constructive dialogue with the community and stakeholders about municipal decisions that matter to them, including this project. Until April 13, the City invited citizens and stakeholders to participate in an online survey to share their thoughts on the bridge design, including streetscape features and landscaping options.
The City will also be hosting a virtual public open house to continue the conversation and provide additional information about the project, timelines and ways to get involved. The date and details will be provided on this webpage shortly, so please check back often for updates.

The study was initiated to provide a description of existing conditions, offer alternative solutions and design concepts, outline a summary of anticipated impacts and suggest mitigation measures to implement throughout the process. In December 2013, Vaughan Council approved the final EA study, which determined the preferred solution to be a bridge built over Highway 400 at Canada Drive and America Avenue.
Now moving into the design phase, citizens are encouraged to get involved in the process and have their say on the design of the bridge, including streetscape plans, landscaping concepts and more.
The survey will take approximately 10 minutes to complete and will be available until Tuesday, April 13. If you have any questions about this survey, please contact Frank Facchini, Project Manager, Infrastructure Delivery, at CDAAbridge@vaughan.ca.
