More construction in London's southwest begins on Monday, with the extension of Bradley Avenue. The road will be extended beyond White Oak Road to Wharncliffe Road South.
According to the City of London, this will improve connectivity, support future growth and bring a new four-lane road to the area.
Another upgrade to Bradley Avenue will include new sidewalks, bike lanes, street lighting and an open drainage channel between White Oak Road and Jalna Boulevard.
Part of the project includes phase one of the White Oaks Tributary Complete Corridor, which will add a new drainage chancel and natural heritage improvements.
Doug MacRae, Director, Transportation and Mobility said the Bradley Avenue extension supports continued growth and improvement on how people move around the city.
'This is more than just roadwork, it's an investment in how we move, grow and live in southwest London,' said MacRae.
The extension aligns with London's long-term growth management strategy in the southwest area.
