What is changing in West Oak Trails

We have not yet published a story specific to West Oak Trails. The Oakville-wide coverage below applies here, and the sections that follow set out what the public record currently says about the area.


Context

West Oak Trails in context

West Oak Trails is a 1990s and 2000s community built between two creek valleys, and the trail network it is named for is the thing that actually organises it. Fourteen Mile Creek and Bronte Creek bracket the area, and the walking and cycling routes between them do more to connect the subdivisions than the road grid does.

Development here is concentrated at the northern and western edges. The Bronte Green lands at the southeast corner of Bronte Road and Upper Middle Road West carry site plan applications on two separate blocks, and Dundas Street West to the north holds a retirement residence application and the Halton Sikh Cultural Association's approved development on Khalsa Gate.

The community also holds two of the town's larger secondary and elementary schools, which is a fair indicator of how much of Oakville's population growth landed here in a short period.


Development

What is in the pipeline

  1. Caivan Bronte North at Bronte Green, Block 444, southeast corner of Bronte Road and Upper Middle Road West.
  2. A second Bronte Green application at Block 445 on the same plan.
  3. Delmanor West Oak at 1280 Dundas Street West, and The Regional Municipality of Halton at 1105 Bronte Road.
  4. The Halton Sikh Cultural Association at 2403 Khalsa Gate, with its official plan amendment and rezoning recently approved.

The Town files active development and site plan applications by ward. For West Oak Trails, start with Ward 4 on the Town’s active applications page. A ward is not the same shape as a neighbourhood; it is where the Town keeps the file.
