New All-Way Stop Notification: Brock Street and Watson Street, Town of Whitby

The Regional Municipality of Durham will be implementing an all-way stop at Brock Street (Regional Highway 12) and Watson Street in the Town of Whitby. This improvement will require all drivers in each direction to stop their vehicle before entering the intersection, and yield to both pedestrians in the crosswalk and any traffic in or approaching the intersection. This enhancement will improve safety for drivers and pedestrians by providing a controlled crossing.

The all-way stop installation is tentatively scheduled for June 8, 2020 and is in support of AVIN’s autonomous shuttle bus pilot that is expected later this year. Unfavourable weather conditions may influence the work schedule.

Drivers, cyclists and pedestrians are reminded to exercise additional caution for everyone’s safety.
