Western & Sarnia Road Project Update

Construction of Philip Aziz Avenue and Western Road is planned to begin in Spring 2026. The construction of the roadworks is anticipated to require one construction season, with some planned carry-over and finishing work in 2027. Finalization of the construction staging plan will include coordination with Western University administration.

    Construction of the Sarnia Road walking and cycling infrastructure improvements will be completed under a separate contract, planned to be completed in 2027 subject to property acquisition required to support the project.

    For more information see the report to the City’s Community and Protective Services Committee (skip to p. 27).
