WATCH: Bypass will 'destroy' significant wetlands, advocate says

On the latest episode of Inside the Village podcast, environmentalist Keith Brooks weighs in on the proposed Bradford Bypass. 'We don't support it'

Debated for the decades, the Bradford Bypass is a hot-button issue—yet again—as Ontario voters head to the polls.

On the latest episode of Inside the Village, a news podcast produced by Village Media, Keith Brooks weighs in on the controversial highway proposal. Brooks is the programs director at Environmental Defence, a leading climate advocacy organization.

"We don't support it," Brooks said during the podcast. "I don't think that there is any evidence to support that a highway like that—whether it's the Bradford Bypass or the 413—is going to do anything to alleviate congestion. We know these new roads just get filled up with new cars."
