Highway 7 - Kitchener to Guelph

[danbrotherston]

Love the idea of Victoria receiving a road diet after all of this. Add some tree-lined streets, a few parks, some development and boom! No more urban blight -

This is the most appealing prospect coming out of the new Highway 7 for me, too. I don't relish more sprawl in and around Breslau, but less traffic on Victoria bolstering the case to turn it into a more urban street is a wonderful consolation prize.

Lol, I wouldn't hold your breath, the Regional transportation plan gives a road diet for Victoria St. only the same value as widening the Western portion to increase the level of traffic sewer.  Remember, regional transportation planning places no value on urban form or quality of place, they only care about transportation, and apparently widening is just as good as active transportation.  There's a good chance this road will never improve...although we might have another election before the plan actually comes up, so we'll see.
