Update on intersection improvements at Oxford Road 59 and Oxford Road 33

Intersection improvements at Oxford Roads 59 and 33 will be activated in June 2023.

The new all-way stop and overhead flashing red lights to be put in place at the intersection will be activated once power connections to the new infrastructure are complete.

In addition to these measures, the County will be implementing the following features:

• rumble strips on all four approaches

• a reduction to 60 km/hr speed limit beginning 500 metres from the intersection on all four approaches
• electronic speed feedback signs on all four approaches at the 60 km/hr speed zone limits
• line painting / pavement markings

Signs alerting drivers to the upcoming changes will be placed in the area in the coming weeks.

The intersection improvements, which were approved earlier this year as part of Oxford County’s 2023 Budget, follow the red flashing lights that were installed in January 2023 on the existing stop signs for the eastbound and westbound approaches to the intersection.

Please help keep our roads safe: always obey road signs and posted speed limits, drive alert and distraction free, and drive according to weather and road conditions.
