Brock Road landfills information


Brock Road landfills are a series of landfills used by Toronto (acquired by Metro Toronto in 1969) from 1975 to 1990s.[1] The North and West site are in Pickering, while the South site is in Ajax.

Only Brock North and Brock West were used as dumps, whereas Brock South site was acquired and left unused.

Several factors led to the closure of the landfill sites, including: sites reaching capacity; public pressure to discontinue using these sites for Toronto's garbage; and the proximity of these sites to nearby farms, residential areas, and to sensitive or protected areas such as Grand Valley Park, Greenwood Conservation Area, and First Nations sites discovered in the Duffins Creek watershed to the west and east.[2]
