Winnipeg, MB – A recommended design for the future of north Henderson Highway is now ready for Winnipeggers’ review.
The Henderson Highway North Improvements 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.
The recommended design builds upon what was previously presented for feedback and is based on technical analysis, traffic studies, and what we heard in Phase 2 engagement.
Phase 3 engagement will ask Winnipeggers to confirm the recommended design and tell us whether its components would make travel through, and life in the area better.
The design recommends:
- How the roadway could better serve traffic, utilities, and drainage
- A plan to replace the Bunn’s Creek crossing
- How best to safely, efficiently, and accessibly move all types of road users
- A better access plan for cars turning into and off Henderson Highway
The recommended 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.
Winnipeggers can provide feedback via an online survey open through May 31, 2023 or at a public open house on May 17, 2023.
