A Municipal Class Environmental Assessment is underway for a proposed extension of Cataraqui Woods Drive eastward to create a connection with the future extension of Old Mill Road and the Purdy’s Mill subdivision.

A Municipal Class Environmental Assessment is a process mandated by the Government of Ontario for large infrastructure projects.

Project Scope

Purdy’s Mill Subdivision, located off Old Mill Road, is a developing area with a mix of residential proposed and approved, including single family homes and apartments. As it grows it requires road access. Connecting Old Mill Road and Cataraqui Woods Drive is needed to support this growth with a secondary connection.

Process

The City has retained R.V. Anderson Consulting to complete this assessment. They will develop four options that present different alignment options as well intersection control options, they will also include options for additional pedestrian connectivity and future road connections to the north and south.

Once those options have been identified and developed they will be presented to the public for feedback on Get Involved Kingston and through an in-person public information session (date, time and location to be determined).

Options will also be evaluated along with a number of supporting studies including ecological, geotechnical, species at risk, hydrogeological, hydraulic, and archeological.

Using the information from the assessment process, public feedback and the completed studies and informed decision will be made.
