Road Improvements
What improvements are being made to Kenaston Boulevard?
Kenaston is a four-lane divided roadway (two northbound and two southbound lanes) with an urban cross-section from Taylor Avenue to south of Lowson Crescent, where it transitions to a rural cross-section. Kenaston will be widened to six lanes, three northbound and three southbound from Taylor Avenue to south of Lowson Crescent, with improvements made to the rail crossing. A City Study is currently underway to upgrade Kenaston to six lanes from Taylor Avenue north to Ness Avenue.
