    ONTARIO GOVERNMENT NOTICE NOTICE OF STUDY COMMENCEMENT HIGHWAY 400 - HIGHWAY 404 LINK (THE BRADFORD BYPASS) ASSIGNMENT NO. 2019-E-0048 PRELIMINARY DESIGN & CLASS ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT STUDY THE STUDY The Ontario Ministry of Transportation (MTO) has retained AECOM Canada Ltd. (AECOM) to undertake a Preliminary Design and Class Environmental Assessment (EA) Study for the proposed Highway 400 – Highway 404 Link (Bradford Bypass). MTO previously completed a route planning study for the Bradford Bypass in 1997 and a subsequent EA and Recommended Plan were approved in 2002. The proposed Bradford Bypass is a new 16.2 km rural controlled access freeway. The proposed highway will extend from Highway 400 between Lines 8 and 9 in Bradford West Gwillimbury, will cross a small portion of King Township and will connect to Highway 404 between Queensville Sideroad and Holborn Road in East Gwillimbury. There are proposed full and partial interchanges, as well as grade separated crossings at intersecting municipal roads and watercourses, including the Holland River and Holland River East Branch. This project will also include the Preliminary Design for the replacement of the 9th Line structure on Highway 400. The study area within Simcoe County (Town of Bradford West Gwillimbury) and the Regional Municipality of York (Township of King and Town of East Gwillimbury) is shown in the key map. THE PROCESS This Study will follow the approved planning process for a Group ‘A’ project under the MTO Class Environmental Assessment for Provincial Transportation Facilities (2000) (Class EA). General improvements/enhancements to the approved 2002 route of the Bradford Bypass will be considered as part of this EA Study.
