Construction update 5

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 construction plan for the week of December 16, 2024 :

• Continue with topsoil and tree installation around re-aligned creek.
• Continue to install rocky material over synthetic clay liner for new pond. It will protect the clay liner from damage and provide weight to counteract uplift from groundwater.
• Temporary repair for sidewalk at site entrance.

The contractor will likely be shutting down for winter holidays from December 23 to January 3. Some work may occur based on crew availability.

The plan for construction for the week of January 6, 2025:

• Install armour stone retaining wall around edge of new pond.

Please note that installation of the oil-grit separator on Gatestone Boulevard could not be completed due to unfavourable soil and groundwater conditions. Temporary asphalt and curb has been restored for the winter. Installation of the OGS will likely be completed in the spring using alternative dewatering methods to ensure soil movement doesn’t undermine the nearby roadway.
