About the Project
The Ontario Ministry of Transportation (MTO) has retained AECOM to undertake a Detail Design and Class Environmental Assessment (EA) Study for the replacement of the Penetanguishene Road (formerly Simcoe County Road 93) Overpass at Highway 11 and the associated interchange improvements, as shown in the key plan below. The project is located within the Township of Oro-Medonte, the County of Simcoe, and as a result of a recent municipal boundary adjustment, is now located within the City of Barrie. This project also includes the reconstruction of the interchange ramps as well as modifications to the existing carpool lot, shifting of the Highway 11 horizontal alignment, drainage improvements, new traffic signals at the west ramp terminal and roadside safety improvements.
The Recommended Plan for the above noted improvements was established through the Preliminary Design and EA Study (Group ‘B’) completed by the Ministry in 2022 and as documented in the Highway 11 / Penetanguishene Road (formerly Simcoe County Road 93) Overpass and Interchange Improvements Transportation Environmental Study Report (Morrison Hershfield, Nov. 2022).
