About the project
The design phase is underway for the urbanization of 2nd Dug Hill Road. As part of this project, various active transportation and pedestrian access options were explored for 2nd Dug Hill Road from Highway 2 south for approximately 1.6 km.
Study area
Project design
In the fall of 2024, the City of Quinte West asked the community to choose their preferred design of the two options presented at a public information centre (PIC) and through a community survey. 82.1% of respondents preferred option 1:
Option 1: 3 m multi-use pathway separated from the road with boulevard; sidewalk on the west side separated by a grassed boulevard
Option 2: 3 m multi-use pathway adjacent to the curb; two on-road cycling lanes with a buffer; sidewalk on the west side separated by a grassed boulevard
Construction on option 1, in addition to new raised mid-block pedestrian crossovers with flashing lights near Appledene Drive and Hillside Meadow Drive, is scheduled to begin in the summer of 2025.
Project timeline
Fall 2024 - Public information centre #1 and community consultation
June 2025 - Completion of detailed design and public information centre #2
Summer/fall 2025 - First phase of construction
Summer 2026/2027 - Final phase of construction (pending completion of trunk sewer main)
