Winnipeg, MB – The City of Winnipeg is asking Winnipeggers for feedback on proposed changes to Henderson Highway north of Chief Peguis Trail as part of Phase 2 of the Henderson Highway North Improvements Study.
The project, which began in late 2021, is specifically looking to improve safety, traffic flow, and livability from Gilmore Avenue to the north city limit at Glenway Avenue.
While the project includes a number of engineering and traffic improvements, Phase 2 engagement will ask Winnipeggers to weigh in on a few specific items, namely:
- Introducing a median on Henderson Highway to manage access and improve safety
- Improving pedestrian and cycling infrastructure
- Replacing the existing Bunn’s Creek crossing structure
The designs presented in Phase 2 are based on technical analysis and traffic studies, as well as what was heard through stakeholder meetings and public participation in a mapping tool that looked at what matters most to road users and residents in terms of safety, efficiency, and accessibility along the corridor.
The improvements consider the unique nature of the study area and look to improve travel for all who use Henderson Highway for its many purposes: as a major city route, as a neighbourhood connection, and as a residential corridor that transports people, goods and services with diverse needs.
