Project 22-2307 - December 12, 2023 update

Streets affected: Various streets

Peel Region will be working in your neighbourhood to remove a maintenance hole. We will safety retire this maintenance hole as it is no longer needed.

Location of work

We will remove the maintenance hole located on Queen Street West, just west of Chinguacousy Road.

Construction schedule

This work is planned to take place on December 18, 2023, from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.

These timelines are estimates, as weather and other unexpected events may impact our timelines.

All work is under warranty for two years from the completion date.

Contractor and consultant

The work will be completed by Michels Canada and supported by consultant Andrews.Engineer, both under contract to Peel Region.

Traffic and parking

A temporary lane reduction will be required to complete this work.

Eastbound Queen Street West will be reduced to two lanes from James Potter Road to Chinguacousy Road. These lane reductions are expected to occur on December 18, 2023, from 7 a.m. until 5 p.m.

During this time, traffic will be monitored by police officers. When traveling east on Queen Street West, it will still be possible to turn left, right, or proceed straight through the intersection at Chinguacousy Road.

We apologize for any delays or inconvenience resulting from these traffic impacts.

Areas impacted by construction

To complete this work, we will need to dig around the existing maintenance hole located in the roadway. Due to the location of the maintenance hole, this work will cause temporary damage to the road. Any damage caused by Regional construction will be repaired.

Repairing areas impacted by construction

We will start repairing any affected areas of the road, curb, sidewalk, driveways, and lawns once we have replaced the maintenance hole. Repairs may be delayed due to contractor availability or certain seasonal weather conditions.

For example:

• Paving cannot take place when the ground is saturated with water, or the temperature is below 3°C.
• Asphalt is not available in large volumes during the winter. Asphalt usually becomes available around mid-May.

Vibrations

You could feel slight vibrations from the construction work.

Safety during construction

Construction zones require extra caution to keep everyone safe – pedestrians, cyclists, drivers, and construction workers. When driving, walking, or biking through the construction area, please:

• Be aware of your surroundings,
• Watch for construction crews and other road users,
• Slow down, account for delays, and consider other routes if possible.
