The study
Guelph is growing and is expected to reach a population of 203,000 by 2051. To support this growth, Guelph needs more homes and more essential infrastructure.
The owners of 132 Clair Road, 2021, 2093, 2143 and 2187 Gordon Street, and 99 Maltby Road, together with the City of Guelph, are undertaking a Schedule “C” Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA) for a new collector road referred to as the Street A Collector Road.
The new road will be located in the Clair-Maltby area in Guelph’s south end. It will be on the west side of Gordon Street between Clair Road/Poppy Drive and Maltby Road. As part of the MCEA study, the proponents will be considering options for walking, cycling and transit, along with improvements for traffic capacity within the broader study area.

The process
The study will be completed following the guidelines of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA), October 2000 (as amended in 2007, 2011, 2015 and 2023), for Schedule “C” projects. The Class EA process will consider the potential social, economic and environmental impacts within the study area.
As part of the MCEA process, prior to any approvals, the public and parties with specific interests will have an opportunity to review study findings, and provide input on opportunities for improvement and associated recommendations.
In advance of completing the MCEA process, the public and interested parties will also be notified of study completion and final recommendations.
