Unveiling the Final Rathburn and Ponytrail Design
A second and final Public Information session on the Rathburn and Ponytrail project will be held tomorrow, Wednesday June 9th, at 6:30. We are expecting the final design to be presented.
An elaborate plan was put in place to ensure that everyone in Rockwood would be given the opportunity to join the meeting. Other than sign boards, we were advised that postcards would be sent to every home. While some did receive those postcards, the vast majority did not. Nonetheless, the postcards advise you to visit a website for which the address is not valid. Unfortunately, unless you register on the website, you cannot join the meeting.
The reconstruction of these streets will have a significant impact on our community. The addition of bike lanes, pedestrian crossings, turn lanes, traffic flow and safety for all users are on the drawing board. The RHA is hoping that you do your best to attend this meeting. Please register by going to: http://www.mississauga.ca/rathburn-ponytrail
After the meeting, please send us your comments and questions to the rha.executive@gmail.com.
We will use your feedback to draft our response to the City. There is some opportunity for minor revisions.

RATHBURN ROAD EAST AND PONYTRAIL DRIVE
INTEGRATED ROAD PROJECT
The City is proposing changes that will have a significant impact on our community. Before the plan is rubber stamped, the RHA wanted the city to hear your voices, and to ensure that every resident knows exactly how some of the measures to be taken will impact our neighbourhood.
To measure the community reaction to this proposal, a survey was sent to our email subscribers.
The results of the survey and the RHA response to the City, based on the survey results, are posted below.

It is clear that our residents feel that our current trails are sufficient for local use, and improvements should be concentrated on community use preferences. Connecting our existing trail and providing safe passage across Ponytrail Drive appears to be the will of Rockwood Village.

When construction of watermain work on Ponytrail was completed last year, the curbs and islands were temporarily repaired in light of resurfacing and other changes to be undertaken in 2021. This timing allowed for residents to have some input on changes to the area of Ponytrail and Rathburn. At the AGM on October 21, 2020, Rory O’Sullivan, Transport Engineer, and Jeremy Blair, Manager of Transportation Infrastructure Management put forward the current proposal for the area.

The City rolled out the plans for changes coming to the Burnhamthorpe Community Centre at the RHA’s AGM in October.
Residents were advised that the pool at Glen Forest will be relocated to the community center. To make room for the 43,000 sq. ft. aquatic center, the outdoor rink will be removed. For details, see December 2020 Newsletter |
