Studies into Red Hill widening suspended to bring Indigenous delegates into the fold – Hamilton Spectator

Haudenosaunee representative says move to ‘appropriate process’ is ‘positive’
The city is suspending studies into the widening of the Red Hill Valley Parkway to bring a joint stewardship board made up of Hamilton councillors and Haudenosaunee delegates into the loop.
Any proposal to widen the eight-kilometre parkway must be presented to the six-member board for consideration, according to its foundational agreement.
And relations are frayed because the board was left on the sidelines when the city started studying the potential expansion.
To address that, council has told staff to pause engineering and other work into the proposed widening to allow for board deliberations.
