BURLINGTON, January 12, 2011

News Flash
June
2010: The Niagara highway route has been quashed but the threat to Flamborough,
Burlington and the Niagara Escarpment is very much alive. The Ministry
of Transportation has brought back the original Mid-Peninsula Highway Option “C”. It
would pave a new highway from the 403 around Ancaster to the 407 in Burlinton. This
option wasn’t acceptable in 2001 and isn’t acceptable now.

Dr. David Pengelly's review of the RWDI Air Quality report
** The SEHC commissioned the ground breaking Natural Capital
report to provide a valuation to the eco-systems, and the services
they provide, in the GTA West study area. Under ideal circumstances,
the government would complete such a study. Since that was
not the case we have done so ourselves in an effort to ensure more
informed decision making. The services provided in NGTA West
Study area are valued at $912 million annually. This
is only represents one third of the entire NGTA study area.

What’s Old is New Again
In June 2010, the NGTA corridor team identified
this area for a future highway corridor. It cuts through the
heart of Flamborough and crosses the escarpment in Burlington on
the way to meet highway 407. |
