Bathurst Street - the King Ridge

                                                                                             Photos by Barry Wallace

November, 2026, will mark the 10-year completion of the reconstruction and paving of Bathurst Street North in King Township where the street descends into the Holland Marsh.   The project allowed northbound traffic on Bathurst Street to bypass Richmond Hill, Aurora and Newmarket. on its way to Bradford and points beyond.

Pictured above and below is Bathurst Street, looking south up onto the King Ridge (above) and north into the Holland Marsh (below).   Bathurst Street, just north of Hwy. 9, is also touted as the location of a second "Southlake Hospital' site, to be announced in the spring of 2026.
