Elizabeth Street and Lyle Street Infrastructure Renewal Project

About this project

The City is reconstructing Elizabeth Street (from Dundas Street to Queens Avenue) and Lyle Street (from King Street to Dundas Street) to replace aging infrastructure that has met its expected lifecycle.

This project includes:

• Watermain replacement
• Water service replacement to property line
• Sanitary sewer replacement
• Storm sewer replacement
• Partial replacement of existing private drain connections (PDC)
• Utility upgrades
• Streetscape improvements
• On-street parking adjustments
• Sidewalk replacement
• Concrete curb and gutter replacement
• New asphalt road surface

Project status

Work on English Street is underway, requiring a full closure between Queens Avenue and King Street until approximately fall 2024.

Construction on Lyle Street was completed in 2023, with some minor clean-up work and asphalt paving in spring/summer 2024. During this time, intermittent lane restrictions will be necessary on Lyle Street between Dundas Street and King Street to complete this finishing work.

Surface reconstruction and tree assessment report maps are available upon request. Please contact the Project Manager.

Parking and loading

Upon completion of the project, on-street parking on Lyle Street will be reinstated. A total of 10 parking spaces will be reconfigured in order to make room for new parking bays.

Private parking lot access on Lyle Street will be impacted during construction. Accommodations will be made where possible to facilitate access. Access to the private parking lots located on the east side of Lyle Street will be available from the existing Hewitt Street entrance and the existing Dundas Street entrance.

Municipal parking lot access on Elizabeth Street will be impacted during construction. Access to these parking lots will be available from English Street, Queens Avenue and Adelaide Street.
