Impact on Residents

  • Traffic Disruptions: Road closures are not anticipated for the remainder of the works, but delays can be expected. We ask that you do not park on the roadway or boulevard during construction. 
  • Noise and Dust: Construction activities may result in temporary noise and dust. 
  • Vibration: The possibility of vibrations due to compaction equipment during construction is not anticipated to be significant but residents should protect valuables that may be susceptible to damage because of vibration. 
  • Waste Collection: If your regular pick-up point for garbage and recycling is temporarily blocked by construction, the Contractor will assist in collecting and transporting your garbage and recycling to a predetermined collection area. Please ensure house numbers are clearly labeled on all Garbage and Recycling Containers to ensure they are returned to the proper address. 
  • Property: The Municipality will not be responsible for owner installed items within the road allowance, such as sprinklers, landscaping, lamp posts, etc. If you have any of these items, we recommend that they be removed prior to the project if possible.
