Project Description

The Burkeville Neighbourhood is undergoing a comprehensive drainage upgrade project that includes replacing ageing watermains, sanitary sewers, and roadways in several phases. The phasing is designed to prioritize address servicing concerns and reduce construction impacts to the community. During each phase, drainage, water, sanitary, and road infrastructure improvements within the identified phasing areas will be completed. Upgrading the drainage network will reduce local flood risks by increasing the City’s storm system capacity and better servicing the Burkeville area.

Should you require access to driveways you will be admitted by on-duty traffic control person. We ask that you not schedule any moving or pickups/drop offs that will occupy the lane during our closure.
