Kirby Road Extension

Kirby Road is being extended between Dufferin Street and Bathurst Street

​​The City of Vaughan continues to enhance its transportation network to keep residents moving. To accommodate population growth and ensure people can travel throughout Vaughan seamlessly, the City is extending Kirby Road between Dufferin Street and Bathurst Street. The project is well underway and is anticipated to be complete by summer 2026.

Once complete, the newly extended Kirby Road will feature:

• four lanes (two in each direction).
• a new bridge structure crossing East Patterson Creek.
• an in-boulevard multi-use pathway on the north and south sides of the road for cyclists and pedestrians.
• roadway lighting.
• intersection improvements.

The extension of Kirby Road is a strategic, growth-related transportation infrastructure project that aligns with broader improvements in the City’s planned street network, as identified in the Transportation Master Plan, 2012, North Vaughan and New Communities Transportation Master Plan, 2019 and Vaughan Official Plan, 2010.

Project Updates

The project is well underway. Construction began in December 2024 with site clearing and tree removal. To mitigate environmental impacts, the City is collaborating with the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) and the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks to plant approximately 900 trees along the extension route and 21,000 more in Vaughan’s Nashville Conservation Reserve.
