Construction update 1
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 current plan for construction over the two week period from August 12 to 23 is:
- Phase 1 – Moore Ave S
- Finish installing new water and sanitary service lateral pipes from mains to property lines
- Replace storm sewer
- Begin building new granular road base
- Phase 2 – Waterloo St
- Begin setting up temporary watermain. This will eventually result in more scheduled water shutdowns to connect the temporary main to the existing main and connect houses to temporary main
- Commission temporary watermain (swab, chlorinate, test, etc.)
- Switch over houses on Waterloo Street to temporary watermain
Please be aware that based on the anticipated schedule, the last week of August and first few weeks of September are likely to be much more difficult for residents when it comes to access. Replacement of underground infrastructure will be occurring on Waterloo Street while restoration of surface works on Moore is happening. Moore Ave residents will likely take up most of the parking available on Moore as they will be frequently out of their driveways while waiting for concrete curb, sidewalk and driveway aprons to be installed and cured. Residents of Waterloo Street will likely need to park to the south and east, and access Waterloo Street from the east (until sidewalks are replaced on Moore). Please have patience.
