Rymal Road Planning Area Study (ROPA 9)

The City of Hamilton has initiated the Master Plan Class Environmental Assessment (EA) process to assess the transportation, water supply, and sewage needs for the Rymal Road Planning Area. Amendment No. 9 to the Region of Hamilton-Wentworth Official Plan (ROPA 9) redesignated approximately 190 hectares (470 acres) of land in this area, to allow urban development. The Rymal Road Planning Area will require growth related infrastructure and service improvements, including the following potential projects:

• the widening of Rymal Road;

• a new road link from Stone Church Road / Red Hill Creek Expressway ramps to Rymal Road (on an alignment to be determined)

• the construction of a new signalized collector road intersection with Regional Road 56 and the widening of Regional Road 56 between the new collector road and Rymal Road;
• storage and pumping capacity improvements to the water distribution system; and
• wastewater improvements to connect the proposed sanitary sewer system to the City’s trunk system.

The Study Area

The subject lands are located on the south side of Rymal Road East (Highway No. 53), east of Trinity Church Road, west of Regional Road 56, and north of the hydro corridor, in the former Township of Glanbrook.

Special Policy Area ‘C’ is also included in the study.  This area is bounded by Mud Street West to the north, Paramount Drive to the south, Winterberry Drive to the east, and the Mud Street / Red Hill Creek interchange to the west.
