Contract Awarded for Highway 102 Project Design

Highway 102 near Larry Uteck Drive.

The next phase to improve one of the busiest sections of Nova Scotia’s road network is moving forward.

Following a public procurement process, WSP was awarded the contract to identify future corridor requirements and produce preliminary design work for Highway 102 between exits 0 (Bayers Road) and 4C (Highway 107) in Halifax Regional Municipality.

About 60,000 people use this section of Highway 102 daily.

This work will:

  • determine how best to move more people and goods while balancing the needs of different modes of transportation, including transit, active transportation and freight
  • consider interchange updates, safety improvements and high-occupancy vehicle lanes and/or transit priority measures
  • analyze the impact of development along the corridor, including several approved special planning areas
  • confirm the feasibility of proposed upgrades, guide long-term investments in the corridor, and help inform future decision-making for the detailed design and construction phases
