West Durham nearshore water quality monitoring

Posted on Friday, August 14, 2020 04:55 PM

The Region of Durham has teamed up with the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA), as well as York Region, to monitor and look at what shapes Lake Ontario’s water quality in west Durham.

The Western Durham Nearshore Water Quality Monitoring program has been collecting water quality data from the nearshore of Lake Ontario since 2006, including by Durham Region’s Ajax Water Supply Plant intake and near the Duffin Water Pollution Control Plant outfall.

Posted on Wednesday, August 05, 2020 04:46 PM

As a part of Durham Vision Zero, Durham Region is making bicycle crossings easier and safer for cyclists, drivers and pedestrians by installing crossrides along multi-use path routes at intersections throughout the region.

Durham Works Road Safety

Slow down and drive safely!

Posted on Thursday, June 25, 2020 10:00 AM

Did you know that speed is a contributing factor in approximately one third of fatal motor vehicle collisions? Reducing speed is the best way we can reduce the frequency and severity of collisions in our community.

While traffic may be lighter during COVID-19 as residents continue to stay home, road safety is more important than ever and we all must use roads responsibly. For drivers, that means slowing down and remembering that speed limits are not guidelines – they are laws. For cyclists and pedestrians,...
