The City is initiating the Class EA process for Glancaster Road, between Dickenson and Garner Road, which is located within the Hamilton Airport Employment Growth District (AEGD). This study is required before a road improvement strategy is selected and designed.
Location: Glancaster Road within the Hamilton Airport Employment Growth District (AEGD)
Study status: Active
Classification: Schedule B (Phase 3 & 4)
Background
The AEGD Transportation Master Plan classifies Glancaster Road as a North-South Arterial Roadway with a proposed widening from two to four lanes. The Current ROW varies, from 20m at Dickenson Road, in a saw tooth pattern, to 26m and 42m at intersection with Garner and the proposed ROW width of 37m. Glancaster Road has been designed as an urban roadway; however, it will not be designed as a standard urban cross-section. The AEGD cross-sections incorporate vehicular, pedestrian, transit, goods movement and cycling needs, as well as drainage, recognizing conditions within the AEGD and unique objectives for this area.
