The City of Hamilton initiated a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA) for West 5th from Stone Church to Rymal Road. This corridor has been identified for improvements to address urbanization and reconstruction and potential widening of the road.

Through this process, preferred design options will be identified to maximize the performance of the South Mountain area road network, including integration of complete streets principles, active and multi-modal transportation, and sustainable stormwater management.

What is a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA)?

A MCEA is a planning process that helps the City of Hamilton protect the environment while planning infrastructure projects (e.g., development of roads, water, and wastewater systems). Public engagement is key to MCEA projects, ensuring that residents are informed and consulted throughout the lifecycle of the project.

How can you get involved?

We are committing to consulting residents as part of this project to inform preferred design options for West 5th Street. We invite you to share feedback to help shape upcoming enhancements to West 5th. Take a look at what we're planning, let us know what you think, and ask questions.
