Highway 413 Preliminary Design 90 Per Cent Complete

• Our government is standing up for drivers by building the highways we need to tackle gridlock and keep people moving.
• We have completed 90 per cent of the preliminary design work for Highway 413, including the design of all major structures, interchanges and crossings, and determined the preferred alignment of the highway.
• Identifying the preferred alignment of the highway means the province can begin releasing unneeded land back to owners for farming, residential, business and other uses.
• Ontario has identified 113 full and 57 partial properties not required for building the highway, with the remaining land being released beginning in 2025.
• We are currently undertaking fieldwork, including borehole drilling and engineering, to evaluate soil composition and bedrock depth and expect shovels in the ground with construction beginning next year.
• By completing 90 per cent of the design work on Highway 413, we’ve taken a big step towards getting this critical highway project built and are now able to speed up the release of property to owners.
