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.

What’s Old is New Again
In June 2010,
the NGTA corridor team identified this

highway corridor. It cuts through the heart of Flamborough and
crosses the escarpment in Burlington on the way to meet highway 407.
