Project Introduction & Surveyor Information
During the next few weeks, you may observe surveyors undertaking a detailed field survey in your neighbourhood. The survey is being completed in preparation for the reconstruction of the street(s) listed above.
As is common with many city reconstruction projects, the service of a consulting engineering firm has been arranged to work with City of Kitchener staff. The firm of MTE Consultants Inc. has been selected for this project.
In order to gather the required details, the survey will include the frontage of your property as well as the street. The purpose of this survey is to locate all existing features (trees, gardens, steps and walkways, etc.) on the plans for preliminary study and final design.
The surveyors should not interfere with your regular activities but will identify themselves if you have any questions.
The reconstruction is being done to replace the older, deteriorated underground services.
The following is a brief list of specific improvements being considered:
- Upgrade the existing storm sewer, sanitary sewer and water mains, including additional hydrants as required.
- Replace existing sanitary and water services from the new mains to the property line.
- Curb and gutter, and sidewalks will be installed.
- Upgrade the asphalt roadway.
- Replace all driveway ramp entrances in concrete.
- Install and/or replace retaining walls.
More information about the project will be made available for all members of the public including owners and residents that will be directly affected by the proposed improvements.
It is anticipated that construction will occur in the summer of 2025.
