Proposed work details:

  • Watermain replacement
  • Water service replacement to the property line
  • New sidewalks and bike lanes
  • New curbs and gutters
  • Repaving the road with new asphalt
  • Tree removals (see Appendix A)

If you have not completed the pre-construction survey already, we would appreciate your taking the time to fill out the questionnaire sent with the previous communication, to share any feedback you might have related to flooding, water supply, traffic, or any other neighbourhood considerations.

The City has evaluated how pedestrians, motorists, and cyclists will be impacted by the construction of this project. We have determined that Southdale Road East will remain open to local vehicle traffic only. There will be a few possible disruptions to driveway access at different points in the project.

Residents who require accommodation (level entry, advanced notice, etc.) should contact the Project Manager to arrange for access during the construction period. Cyclists and pedestrians should exercise caution around construction sites and follow all construction signs. A Construction Notice will be issued before construction begins with additional information.
