Age-friendly Henderson

Based on community feedback collected during the Watt St Parklet Pilot, and thanks to an Age-Friendly Community Collaboration Grant, this summer we’ll be installing a lot more seating along Henderson Hwy between Hespeler Ave and Johnson Ave, as well as on Johnson Ave. The goal is to make our community more age-friendly, so people at all stages of life are able to get around and access neighbourhood amenities while being able to stop, rest or tie a shoe whenever needed.

UPDATE Sept 25th, 2024: The benches are installed, and boy are they popular! Within minutes of installation, people were sitting in them. So much so, that it took a while to be able to get photos of each of these while empty!

Here’s a map of their approximate locations, as well as some photos! Please let us know what you think!
