Highway 40 Widening

GHD, on behalf of the Ministry of Transportation (MTO), has initiated the Preliminary Design and Class Environmental Assessment (EA) Study for the widening of Highway 40 from Indian Road to 0.6 km north of Wellington Street, located in the City of Sarnia within the County of Lambton. In 2004, the MTO completed a Preliminary Design Study for the Study Area. As a result, the previous findings and recommended improvements will be considered as part of the current Study.

This website has been established to share information about the Study with those interested in learning more and to contact communications with the Study Team concerning any questions, enquires, or comments.
