About this project
Southdale Road West is a Civic Boulevard that transports many Londoners every day. The road already experiences significant traffic delays, a challenge that is expected to increase with new and future developments in the area, including the recently built Bostwick Community Centre.
This project was studied in a 2019 Environmental Assessment that looked at solving the above challenges, identifying solutions that accommodate all road users, and supporting future development in the area.
The Environmental Assessment looked at solving the above challenges by studying road improvements for Southdale Road West between Pine Valley Boulevard and Colonel Talbot Road. This study also looked at road enhancements to Bostwick Road from Southdale Road West to Pack Road to support future development in that region.
The 2030 Transportation Master Plan prioritized road improvements to Southdale Road West and Bostwick Road to address future growth and accommodate all roadway users, including pedestrians, cyclists, and vehicles.

upgrading watermains and new storm sewers

reconstructing the road, while adding new curb and gutter, additional traffic lanes, and line painting
adding new street lighting and traffic signals
adding new landscaping
These recommendations are designed to:
help improve traffic operations

help protect established communities and businesses
better accommodate existing and new transit users
Public engagement opportunities
The City is hosted an online public engagement meeting on Wednesday, December 15, 2021 to give an update on the project and to present the latest designs. A one-week engagement period is now open until December 22, 2021. To submit your comments or questions, please use the 'questions and comments' box below, or contact the project team direclty.
