Robertson Road Sidewalk

Background and Context

The City’s Transportation Master Plan (TMP) outlines a list of active transportation projects that will be implemented to address missing links or opportunities for expansion of the network. This list of projects was developed based on public consultation, Councillor input, and a city-wide network review. One of the priority projects within the TMP includes a sidewalk on the north side of Robertson Road, addressing a missing pedestrian link within the Bells Corners community.
