THE TOWN OF EAST GWILLIMBURY IS PROPOSING TO TRANSER CLEAN FILL TO THE LARGE SCALE FILL SITE JUST SOUTH OF THE CORNER OF LESLIE AND RAVENSHOE, 22610 LESLIE STREET.
WHAT THIS COULD MEAN TO THE RESIDENTS OF KESWICK/GEORGINA IS:
O APPROXIMATELY 200 GRAVEL TRUCKS A DAY, BETWEEN THE HOURS OF 7AM
AND 7PM, MONDAY TO FRIDAY EXITING THE 404 AT THE KESWICK EXIT.
O THAT ALSO MEANS 200 TRUCKS HEADING SOUTH EVERY DAY.
O THIS PROPOSED SITE COULD POSSIBLY RUN BETWEEN 3 AND 7 YEARS.
O WE ARE EXPECTING 1500 NEW HOMES TO BE BUILT WITHIN THE NEXT YEAR,
WHICH WILL ADD TO THE TRAFFIC ON THE 404, LET ALONE HAVING 200
ADDITIONAL GRAVEL TRUCKS ADDING TO THE TRAFFIC FLOW.
IF WE AS A TOWN BAN TOGETHER QUICKLY VIA SIGNING THIS ON-LINE PETITION, WE HOPE TO BE ABLE TO PERSUADE THE TOWN OF EAST GWILLIMBURY TO CHANGE THEIR EXIT ROUTE TO THE QUEENSVILLE SIDEROAD EXIT INSTEAD. (AFTER ALL, THEIR TOWN IS GOING TO BE FINANCIALLY COMPENSATED $1 PER CUBIC METRE OF FILL).
WE WANT OUR VOICES HEARD, THAT WE DON'T WANT THEIR 200 TRUCKS EXITING AT THE KESWICK EXIT CAUSING A HUGE BOTTLENECK AND UNTOLD SAFETY ISSUES ON THE 404 EXTENTION
