Transportation improvements prepare York Region to meet the needs of motorists, cyclists, pedestrians and transit users today and into the future. York Region is replacing a bridge on Kennedy Road north of Mount Albert Road in the Town of East Gwillimbury.

Kennedy Road is open following a road closure to facilitate a bridge replacement.
While the majority of work is complete, construction crews will be returning in the coming months to complete final work requiring a lane closure.
