Woodbine Avenue from Aurora Road to Vivian Road

Transportation improvements prepare York Region to meet the needs of motorists, cyclists, pedestrians and transit users today and into the future. York Region is improving Woodbine Avenue from Aurora Road to Vivian Road in the Town of Whitchurch-Stouffville.

Duration: April 2025 to June 2025

Road improvements:

• York Region is removing and replacing asphalt road surface on Woodbine Avenue from Aurora Road to Vivian Road
  • Traces of asbestos are present in the current asphalt on Woodbine Avenue 
  • Asbestos was used in asphalt mixes throughout the 1970s and early 1980s to improve performance 
  • The risk of exposure to asbestos for workers and bystanders is low 
  • As a precaution, York Region’s contractor will take protective measures during removal of existing asphalt containing traces of asbestos 
• Replacing culverts that allow water to flow freely under the road 
• Repairing curbs and roadside ditches

Impacts to travellers: 

• The road will remain open to through traffic; however, temporary lane closures are required Monday to Saturday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
• Access to homes and businesses will be maintained

As with all construction projects, work may be rescheduled due to weather. York Region will provide advance notice where possible.
