Project 23-2300 K
Streets affected: Various streets
Construction in your area
Peel Region will be rehabilitating the sanitary and storm sewers along various streets in Peel Region.
Sanitary sewers are underground pipes that carry wastewater from your home to a water resource recovery facility. Wastewater is created when water goes down a drain or toilet. Storm sewers are separate underground pipes that carry rainwater and melted snow from streets and properties to local creeks and rivers. We will clean the existing sewer pipes and place a new resin (plastic) lining inside to extend their service life.
Construction schedule
Construction is expected to start in September 2026 and finish by April 2027. These timelines may change due to weather and other unexpected events.
Contractor working hours
The work will be completed by Capital Sewer Services Inc. under contract to Peel Region. Working hours are from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday to Friday. These hours are consistent with local municipal bylaws and help shorten the amount of time construction is in your area.
Wastewater service interruptions
Your wastewater service pipe will be out of service for approximately 8 hours. Wastewater service pipes carry wastewater from your home or business to the sanitary sewer. This interruption allows the pipe to be repaired without digging trenches. A second notice with a date and time will be provided at least 24 hours in advance.
It is important to minimize your water use during this work:
- You may continue to wash your hands but minimize your water use.
- Do not use showers, bathtubs, dishwashers, or your washing machine.
- Keep toilet flushing to a minimum. This reduces the possibility of wastewater backing up into your basement or plumbing. If you have a sump pump, notify us at construction@peelregion.ca or tell the contractor when they arrive.
Odours
You may smell odours which will go away within a few hours. You can prevent or minimize this by pouring a bucket of water down the basement floor drain and running water in all sinks, showers, and tubs for a minute, either the evening before or day of the relining work. If this is not possible (for example, if it is currently covered by flooring), we strongly recommend making it accessible before construction begins to reduce odours.
Construction safety
Construction zones require extra caution to keep everyone safe. Be aware of your surroundings when driving, walking, or biking near the construction area. Watch for construction crews and other road users, slow down, and consider other routes. Learn more about how to stay safe in construction zones.
