Thompson Road Environmental Assessment

This is not a priority. There are 3 roads out of Milton, Derry, Britannia and Steeles. All 3 have had their travelers morning and evening commutes doubled to/from Mississauga over the last 12 months. How do you expect this to get any better with the addition of 10,000 new residents over the next 2 years with all the buildings and subdivisions being built. Main arteries are priority for the greater good. Horrible infrastructure/roads will be the demise of Milton in the near future.

Brittania Road should take priority; be widened and reconstructed from Hvwy 25 right through to Trafalgar.
Adequate lighting should be installed on Thompson Rd. South in the area intended to be widened.

I think Britannia road should be widened in Omar area and Louis St Laurent should be widened up the James snow

Make sure there’s proper right turn lanes, not only at this location, but town wide.

Ensure that the surrounding land is mixed-use. This needs to be an area that people can access without their car... traffic is bad enough. Bike lanes and wide sidewalks are required components. All development should be multi-storey. We need density!

As we are anticipating a Tremaine - 401 interchange I would strongly urge any road improvements be done on the opposite ends of the city (future Tremaine to 401 entrance and existing James Snow to 401 entrance). Increasing traffic volume along Thompson will create more traffic through the city as well when you should attempt to funnel it out of the city and leave smaller streets in downtown areas.

Road should be widened with also including bike and walking paths. However major efforts need to be undertaken to slow vehicles down. This road like many roads in Milton has a problem with speeders. I am not sure drivers will change their bad habits and not sure police will enforce so physical features need to be added to slow drivers down.

Obviously the road should be widened but it should include separated cycling lanes. These lanes will form an important part of a needed cycling network. Lanes that are separated from vehicle traffic are also much safer for all roadway users. The lanes should also be separated from the sidewalk. Also, roundabouts should be used instead of signalized intersections as traffic flow is maintained and energy is saved but not having to accelerate once a light changes.

Thompson road should be widened since it's a continuation of a main artery in Milton. There is always conjestion when trying to avoid James Snow. Address the issue of Britannia Road too.Its always packed and its used frequently as an alternative to Derry.Without addressing the issue of Britannia Road a newly widened Thompson road will just be another Milton parking lot going nowhere. It should have been done before all the house and businesses were added

Address the issue of Britannia Road first . Its always packed and its used frequently as an alternative to Derry.

The boulevard layout that we're seeing on LSL is a great theme to keep with that stretch of Thompson. It allows to keep more green space and character.
The South end desperately needs more commercial. Another cinema, more shopping, etc. This is a great location for it, and will keep southern residents from going into Oakville for shopping, eating and entertainment. It will create more jobs in town too, which would reduce commuter congestion.

Thompson road should be widened since it's a continuation of a main artery in Milton. There is always conjestion when trying to avoid James Snow. The section of Brittiana Road in the settlement of Omagh can also benefit from widening.

Without addressing the issue of Britannia Road a newly widened Thompson road will just be another Milton parking lot going nowhere.

At the same time you should ask what's going to happen at Ontario main when the 84 new apartments are added to 80 Ontario Street North.
There's already traffic backed up all the way back to Steeles this is just another headache waiting to happen

It should have been done before all the house and businesses were added -

Make it happen faster! Commuting out of Milton is infuriating. Having moved here 1 year ago I’m shocked at the lack of planning or progress for travel considering the lack of opportunities for work to support the growth in residential development.
