The Regional Municipality of York is investing in building a safe, efficient and reliable Regional transportation network for
all users. Improvements to the intersection of King Road and Weston Road in the Township of King will support growth and
improve traffic flow.

Construction began mid-July 2019 and once completed by fall 2020, improvements will include:

1. Increasing traffic flow by installing left-turn lanes on all four sides of the intersection
2. Improving the condition of Regional roads for motorists by:
   - Flattening the hill on King Road west of Weston Road
   - Repaving King Road from 540 metres west of Weston Road to Highway 400
3. Meeting the needs of our communities today and into the future by updating traffic signals and improving intersection accessibility
4. Replacing aging infrastructure

We recognize construction can be inconvenient and we are making every effort to minimize disruptions and keep residents informed with regular updates. Thank you for your patience.

Construction Update

A temporary road closure was required to replace three culverts located on King Road between 7th Concession and Weston Road. The road has re-opened and construction has resumed. In the coming months you will see:

• Road widening on King Road to install new left-turn lanes in the northbound and southbound directions
• Traffic signal work to improve traffic flow through the intersection

The intersection will remain open to traffic during construction and access will be maintained, however temporary lane closures will be required between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. for construction.

Safety

Safety is a priority on all Regional construction sites. For everyone’s safety, please reduce your speed when travelling through
the construction area. Please contact us if you have any safety concerns in and around the construction site.

To help manage your daily commutes during construction, travellers can plan their route in advance by using traffic and
navigation tools. York Region provides real-time traffic and road information in open data, used by many app developers.

We are here to answer your questions. Accessible formats of this news item or communication supports are also available upon request.
