About this project

The City is planning a construction project to replace aging infrastructure that has met its expected lifecycle, and to remove existing combined sewers.

This project includes:

• Watermain replacement
• Water service replacement to property line
• Sanitary sewer replacement
• New storm sewer installation
• Partial replacement of existing private drain connections (PDC)
• Utility upgrades
• Streetscape improvements
• Tree removals
• Sidewalk replacement
• Rehabilitation of the elevated sidewalks under the railway overpass
• Concrete curb and gutter replacement
• New asphalt road surface

Construction is expected to start in April 2024 and is anticipated to last until November 2025 with some minor clean-up work in Spring 2026.
