The reconstruction of Main Street Markham from Highway 407 to Major Mackenzie Drive is a key strategic priority for Markham. In addition to the reconstruction of the road, the project:

• Permits much-needed upgrades to Main Street Markham's water main, storm sewers and associated service connections,
   
• Enhances the existing streetscape,
   
• Improves the public realm, and
   
• Showcases this significant residential, commercial and heritage community of Markham.

This Major City Project is divided into four phases:
 

• Phase 1: Highway 7 to Bullock Drive
   
• Phase 2: 16th Avenue to Major Mackenzie Drive
   
• Phase 3: Main Street Markham South
   
• Phase 4: Bullock Drive to 16th Avenue

Why are we doing this?

The community wishes to transform Main Street Markham from a vehicular dominated street to one that better supports commercial activities in the core and enhances the Markham Village Heritage Conservation District. On a Markham-wide scale, the project will allow planning for the overall transportation network up to year 2021 and provide a framework for growth management.

Who is paying for this?

The City of Markham is investing $5,525,200 into the project, to be phased financially over time.
