Why are we opposed

The Oak Park Road Extension is a $100 million infrastructure project in the City of Brantford, Ontario that is currently undergoing a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment. The plan is to build a four kilometer four lane road and a bridge over the Grand River to connect Hardy Road in the Northwest with Colborne Street in the Southwest.


Many citizens in Brantford are opposed to this project and are organizing to prevent it from being built. The main problems are:


  1. Serious degradation of a provincially unique environmental area.
  2. Destruction of recreational facilities such as the Oak Hill trail bridge and access to Brant Park.
  3. Disturbance of the Oak Hill Cemetery.
  4. Noise and disruption to existing neighbourhoods on the Colborne West side.
  5. Unresolved land claims with First Nations peoples over the Haldimand Tract and archaeological remains.
  6. Extreme cost of the OPRE to the city (including ongoing maintenance costs).
