The Town of Whitby is continuing a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (EA) Study to explore possible road modifications and improvements along Water Street (in south Whitby), from Brock Street South to South Blair Street.
The study is being undertaken to identify opportunities to:
enhance the corridor experience along the Whitby Waterfront;
accommodate future parking, active transportation, and travel demands within the area; and
address road alignment and drainage deficiencies.
These improvements are part of the Town's ongoing efforts and partnerships to transform the Whitby waterfront into a destination of choice for all to enjoy.
Community Engagement
Community engagement has been a key component of this study. The Town hosted three Community Open Houses on November 19, 2018, May 24, 2023, and January 10, 2024. These sessions provided valuable opportunities for the study team to gather feedback from the public and stakeholders, ensuring that issues and concerns were identified and addressed. The comments and feedback received through these consultations have been an important contribution to the study.
Notice of Study Completion
The study has been carried out in accordance with the standard planning and design process for a Schedule ‘C’ Municipal Class Environmental Assessment.
To conclude the study process, an Environmental Study Report (ESR) has been prepared to document the planning process undertaken, including the study recommendations, potential impacts, and proposed mitigation measures. The ESR will be made available for a 30-day public review period from November 3 to December 19, 2025. Stay tuned!
