Greenbank realignment land acquisition approved for park & ride

City to acquire land for Greenbank Park & Ride

The Committee approved acquiring land for the future Greenbank Road Park & Ride. The 2.6-hectare parcel of land at 3882 Barnsdale Road will ultimately be located at the corner of Kilbirnie Drive and the realigned Greenbank Road. The City and the property owner have agreed to a final consideration of just over $6.9 million.

The new Park & Ride will support the realigned Greenbank Road and Southwest Transitway extension along Chapman Mills Drive between the Southwest Transitway and the realigned Greenbank Road, ending at Barnsdale Road. As part of the agreement, the property owner must ensure the quality of soil conditions and the final grading are delivered to the satisfaction of the City, and that proper servicing is installed.
