The City of Hamilton has completed the Barton Street and Fifty Road Improvements (BFI) Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) Study. The BFI Class EA Study confirmed widening of both roadways and infrastructure improvements needed to manage existing and future transportation demands for the Fruitland Winona Secondary Plan area. The Study satisfied Phase 3 and 4 requirements of the Municipal Class EA, as well as Phases 1 and 2 requirements for potential future improvements to the CN Rail crossing at Fifty Road. Phases 1 and 2 of the BFI Class EA Study were fulfilled as part of the Stoney Creek Urban Boundary Expansion Transportation Master Plan (2008).

In 2020, the City completed the design for a new bus maintenance and storage facility (MSF) at 281 Birch Avenue. The purpose of the project is to increase the Transit Division’s maintenance and storage capacity to accommodate its existing and growing fleet as the City continues to improve transit service. This new facility represents a significant investment in Hamilton and supports the City’s ongoing commitment to transit expansion, as outlined in the Ten-Year Local Transit Strategy.

The City of Hamilton is completing a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (EA) along Highway 52 extending from north of Powerline Road West to south of Powerline Road East.
