The City of Hamilton is conducting important fieldwork along Glancaster Road (Dickenson Road West to Garner Road/Rymal Road West) as part of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment for roadway improvements.
To properly evaluate potential roadway cross-sections and alignments, a detailed tree inventory is required along the corridor. Additionally, a Species at Risk survey will be conducted within the west-side (Ancaster) woodlot, further from the existing roadway edge.
