Have Your Say – Help Shape The Future Design Of Brock Street in Downtown Whitby

The Town of Whitby is starting a multi-year project to refresh and revitalize historic Brock Street, from the exit at Highway 401 all the way north to the CP rail track near Maple Street, and we want to know what matters most to you.

Have Your Say

From Monday, September 15 until Thursday, October 9, review the design concept and complete a survey to share whether it matches your vision for the street.

Attend an Open House

Join us at the Centennial Building - Regal Room (416 Centre Street South) on Wednesday, September 24 between 1 and 3 p.m. or 5 and 7 p.m. for a drop-in session to learn more about the project and share feedback on key areas.

Public Engagement Results - Phase I

Hey, Connect Whitby community! As a follower of the Brock Street Redesign project, we wanted to let you know that the results of the first survey and initial engagement sessions are in.

Thank you to the more than 580 people who participated in this round of engagement.

Here’s the highlights of what we heard in phase one:

• 80% of survey participants travel on Brock Street daily or a few times a week, with 85% using a vehicle.
• Top design feature priorities for the Brock Street redesign: patios, trees, planters/flowers.
• Other common design considerations raised by survey participants: road safety, pedestrian safety, heritage character, accessibility, parking, festivals and events, and transit connectivity.

See the full survey and engagement session results online.

Next Steps

We are in the second stage of engagement. Feedback gathered will be shared with Whitby Town Council and will be used to identify and plan the final design.

Thank you for your participation and interest in this project!

Virtual Open House

Thank you to the over 60 people who joined us on Wednesday, April 10 for a virtual meeting to learn more and share feedback on key areas. If you missed it, you can view the recording below.
