All Niagara Region projects
About the project
Niagara Region took on a Schedule C Municipal Class Environmental Assessment on the detailed transportation assessment for Bridge Street (Regional Road 43), Erie Avenue, Park Street and Zimmerman Avenue in Niagara Falls. R. J. Burnside and Associates completed this study on behalf of Niagara Region.
