EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
N/A
Repoet to Council MPS 16-00 Date: June 6, 2000 8(�
Subjxt: Highway 7 Rehabilitation Projxt
From Sideline 16, Pickering to Hwy 12, Whitby
lllwnination Standards page 2
BACKGROUND:
In September 1999, the Ministry of Transportation, Uuou3h it's consultanta, Greer Galloway
Group, announced their intention to exaznine improvements to Highway 7 from Sideline 16
(Pickering) to Hwy 12 (Whitby) in accordance with the Provincial Highways Class
Environmental Assessment,1992.
In February 2000, a Public [nfonnation Cenue was held as an opportunity for the Public to
review preliminary design drawi a gs and rclated material, as well as to discuss the project.
The Transportation Environmental Study Report (TESR) wns issued in March 2000 and at that
time the upgading of pariial illumination to mcet Ministry requirements at each minor
intersection had not been detertnined and was cumntly being reviewed.
A meeting with MTO staff; their consulta�its and municipal staff from Pickering nnd Whitby was
held in April 2000. At that meeting, the MTO advised that the unwarranted lighting at all minor
intersections within the project limits would have to be addressed.
Munieipal lighting on wood hyclro poles currently exists at the following intersectians along
Highway 7, within the project limi►s in Pickering.
• Paddock Road/Sixth Conccssion Road
• Westney Road
• Sixth Concession Road
• Saletn Road �
• Balsam Road
• Kinsalc Road/Audley Road
According to the MTO's Iraftic recommcndations, and their Directive B-6 Document,
illumination is not wartantcd at these interscctions, with the exception of Westney Road. Also,
the illumination that does exist at the rcmaining five interscctions, does not comply with the
Ministry's design criteria standards for roadway illumination.
The MTO has discussed Cour options that Pickering must consider to address this issue.
O ta 1on I
➢ Remove the illumination, as it is not warranted under Directive B-6 and does not meet
standerds.
O f°lon2
D Provide partial illumination, upgraded to Ministry Standards and cartied out under the
Ministry's contract.
O tlart 3
➢ Provide partial illumination, to mect the Ministry's standard lighting design criteri�, using
(langible steel poles with concrcte bases, offset 4.Om from the edge of pavemrnt. This
would be carried out by Pickering's contractor (Veridien Conncctions).
�atlon �f
➢ Samc as Option 3, except using wood polea at a 7.Om otiset from cdge of pavemrnt.
9 O Report to Council MPB 16-00 Date: June 6, 2000
Subjxt: Highway 7 Rehabilitedon Projxt
From Sideline 16, Pickering to Hwy 12, Whitby
IlluminaUon Stendards Page 3
These options provide for two luminaries at each intersection, diegonaliy ecross from each other
in 1he standnrd location. The MTO will provide underground pevement crossings as part of thc
road contract, so that the lighting powa supply wires do not cross the highway, overhead.
Anelvsis and Coetine otOationa
O !n lon 1
This option is not recommended, az the lighting that exists loday does provide a level oCsafety to
the roadway at the intersections. Reduced lighting has the potential to increaze coilisions.
Ontion 2 and Ontlon 3
Thae are virtually the same, as they involve either converting the existing lighting or removing
and replacing the lighting to a high standanl. The use of special power supply cabinets and all
underground ductwork, along with steel poles results in a cost oC $15,000 �er intersection for a
total cost of 575,000 (to be cost shared 50/50 with MTO).
O 1n lon 4
It is recommended lhat approval be given to upgradc thc illumination at the five intersections,
along Highway 7 to tho level described in Option 4. 'fhe estimatcd total cost of $40,000, is to be
cost shared with the MTO under Directivc B-6, resulting in Pickering's share being 520,000. As
the funding is not available in the 2000 Capital Budgct, it is recommended that funding be mnde
available through an over expenditure in the 2000 Capital Budget, Account #2325-6181.
