8. Traffic Control & Illumination

1 min read

Traffic signals are recommended at the new Wellington Road 34 Midblock interchange ramp terminal intersections.

To enhance safety, localized illumination is recommended in the following locations:

Highway 6 / Hanlon Expressway Midblock Interchange;
Wellington Road 34 Midblock Interchange ramp terminal intersections;
Wellington Road 34 / Concession Road 7 roundabout and approaches;
Wellington Road 34 / Midblock Connection Road intersection;
Concession Road 7 / Midblock Connection Road intersection; and
Heritage Lake Estates entrance along Wellington Road 34.

Illumination shielding to reduce light trespass will be implemented as required.

Example of a potential approach to traffic signals
