It’s a start: Ottawa, Ontario governments to fund Huron Church Road improvements
TORONTO (July 16, 2002) — The federal and Ontario governments last week said they would spend $880,000 to ease traffic congestion on Huron Church Road in Windsor, Ont.
Huron Church Road is the main artery leading to the Ambassador Bridge, the busiest U.S.-Canada border crossing.
The money will be used to make traffic signal timing more flexible, improve emergency service response, convert existing traffic lights to light emitting diode signals which require less maintenance, and to upgrade systems that collect data on traffic to allow for better planning.
Earlier this month, the mayor of Windsor threatened to shut down Huron Church Road unless the federal and provincial governments provided help to make traffic flow more smoothly.
