Traffic congestion is among the greatest concerns of the citizens of Vaughan, as identified in the recent municipal election campaign.

Congestion along Regional Road 7 (Highway 7 - the main eastwest artery in the city) is intensified by the narrowing of the highway where the road passes under the CP Rail bridge west of Islington Avenue, as the lanes go from six to four from the western approach to the bridge near Kipling to the eastern approach near Bruce Street.

This online campaign supports a formal petition filed with the Government of Canada that seeks government action to widen the CP Rail bridge over Regional Road 7 west of Islington Avenue for the purpose of improving the flow of transit and vehicular traffic.
