Reconnecting with Residents - Construction Update

We know it’s been some time since we’ve been in contact. We wanted to reconnect with you to see if you have any feedback, concerns or questions. If you’re curious about the construction work we’re doing, or what work is happening next, we can answer your questions.

Our construction inspector, Eric Costa, wears a white hard helmet and is on site full-time. The inspector is the first person to contact on site. If you require special access to your property for moving, or are waiting for a special delivery, give the inspector enough notice so your request can be accommodated, if possible.

We know the work during a reconstruction project is an inconvenience for you to get to your property. Please let us know if you need more temporary parking passes. We hope your waste is collected on the regular day as normal, and that you’ve been able to place your waste by the curbside by 7 a.m. The contractor should be relocating your waste as required and returning any containers belonging to you in a timely fashion. If there are any issues, please let us know.

This project was paused in late 2020 but is now ready to restart and be completed in the upcoming months. The work that will happen this year, will include the section of Stirling between Greenbrook and Homer Watson and include the intersection of Homer Watson. A new culvert will be installed, curbs installed, and the trails/sidewalks completed. Construction should begin in the first week of May and be completed mid-October.

We’re happy to meet with you, or discuss by phone, any concerns, or questions that you may have. Please do not hesitate to contact the city’s project manager by phone at 519-741-2200 ext. 7412 or by email at chris.spere@kitchener.ca.
