  • Bayview Avenue Extension Project
    Bayview Avenue Extension Project Submission to:: Transportation Association of Canada for the Environmental Achievement Award 2002 Abstract The Bayview Avenue Extension project is a deserving candidate for the 2002 Environmental Achievement Award for its innovative design used to minimize environmental impacts, at the same time, improving environmental features and enhancing knowledge of locally significant ecosystem elements, in particular a nationally threatened amphibian species. The project features these innovative environmental achievements: Environmentally Responsible Road Alignment successfully mitigated impacts to the nearby Jefferson Forest, Lake Wilcox, Forester March and adjacent wetland areas. Wetland Habitat Creation Project led to the development of diverse habitat zones for a variety of animal and plant species. Amphibian Roadway Crossings were specifically designed to protect and enhance the amphibian population, in particular the Jefferson Salamander, while adding to research and knowledge base of a rare, nationally threatened species. Jefferson Ravine Bridge Crossing provides unimpeded passage for large and small mammals, including white-tailed deer, reptiles and amphibians, working with existing topography to achieve a unique crossing feature. Extensive Vegetation and Landscaping Enhancements screen nearby sensitive areas from roadway intrusions and provided intensified buffering to disturbed areas. Detailed Environmental Analysis was completed to ensure complete compliance with environmental legislation for the Oak Ridges Moraine. Project Details - Bayview Avenue Extension • Four-kilometre, two-lane rural arterial road • Grading constructed for an ultimate four-lane facility • Located within the Town of Richmond Hill and is situated on the Oak Ridges Moraine • Total gross expenditures for the project approximately $ 16 million • Fully funded and maintained by the Regional Municipality of York.

The SNAP brings together residents, businesses, community groups and government agencies to develop a science-based action plan for change that fits the needs of the neighbourhood. In partnership with York Region, the Town of Richmond Hill, and local groups, Toronto and Region Conservation is leading a SNAP for the “Lake Wilcox” Neighbourhood in the Oak Ridges area of Richmond Hill.

Considering the plentiful natural heritage features located here, the action plan focuses on Embracing Nature in the Community through 3 primary action areas: residential eco-landscaping, visitor stewardship, and green renovations and energy. This integrated action plan finds ways to improve water quality in Lake Wilcox, reduce storm runoff, enhance natural areas, and reduce water use. Finally, the plan strives to inspire long time cottagers and residents, new homeowners, businesses and visitors to work together towards environmental sustainability and strengthened neighbourhood identity. About the Lake Wilcox Neighbourhood The Lake Wilcox neighbourhood is located within the larger community of Oak Ridges in the Town of Richmond Hill, York Region.
