The City of Hamilton initiated the Additional Access to Brantford-bound Highway 403 (formerly Mohawk Road Ramp EA) Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA) study in 2013 to determine the feasibility of a westbound access ramp to Highway 403 in Ancaster. Since that time, an extension of the third westbound lane from Southcote Road to Highway 6 has been considered within the extended study area.

The study is being carried out in accordance with Schedule ‘C’ of the Municipal Engineer’s Association MCEA (October 2000, as amended in 2023), which is an approved process under the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act.

The goals and objectives of the study are to:

  • Determine the operational and geometric feasibility of a westbound on-ramp to Highway 403.
  • Assess the limitations and impact of the proposed ramp on Highway 403 operations and future plans.
  • Consider and assess extending a third lane (truck climbing lane) from Southcote Road to Highway 6.
