Phase 2 Construction Update - June 26 to 30
Note: Construction updates are being provided as a courtesy to keep residents appraised of upcoming work. Due to the nature of construction, schedules can quickly change and residents should be prepared for unexpected changes.
The following update is for the week of June 26:
- No work currently scheduled for the week of the 26.
- Setup for curbs tentatively scheduled for week following Canada Day.
Currently there is no anticipated work on-site for the week starting June 26. The prime contractor has completed most underground rehabilitation works. The concrete, asphalt and landscape restoration works are all completed by separate, sub-contractors. The schedule of the sub-contractors do not always perfectly align which can lead to delays between phases of work. It’s always possible that a sub-contractor will have an opening in their schedule so residents should be prepared for work to resume at any time.
Warning: Residents are advised that in the coming weeks the restoration of surface works will begin and it will likely lead to long periods of time without vehicle access to your driveway. This is due to the time required for concrete to cure. Residents can walk on concrete after 24 hours, but cannot drive on it for 72 hours. Concrete restoration will start with curbs, then typically sidewalks a few days after that, and driveways a few days after that. Roadway asphalt may be placed after curbs and before sidewalk and driveway concrete, depending on sub-contractor schedule. Due to the staggered nature of the placement of concrete, it means that one 72 hour period will not have passed prior to the next one starting, resulting in a prolonged period without driveway access.
