Project 25-1310 C
Streets affected: Atoka Drive, Coralbean Place, Roundwood Court, Round Leaf Court and Thorpedale Court
Construction work in your area
Peel Region will be improving the watermains along Atoka Drive, Coralbean Place, Roundwood Court, Round Leaf Court and Thorpedale Court, as shown on the attached map. Watermains are underground pipes that bring tap water from our water treatment facility to your neighbourhood. The watermain at the end of your street currently has a dead end and will be extended into a loop. This work is required to improve water circulation and provide you with high-quality water.
Construction schedule
Construction is planned to start June 23, 2025, and finish by August 30, 2025. These dates may change due to weather and other unexpected events. Once the underground work is completed, we’ll begin repairing impacted driveways, boulevards, sod (grass), roads, curbs, and sidewalks. Information about repairs will follow at a later date. All work is warrantied for two years from the completion date.
Contractor working hours
The work will be completed by N.S.J WaterWorX Group LTD 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 neighborhood.
Traffic and parking
We may need to temporarily close roads or reduce traffic to a single lane. If this is needed, we will place signs giving directions. On-street parking will be reduced when we are working on your street.
Interrupting your water supply
We may need to temporarily shut off your water.
For residents:
- If we need to shut off your water for several hours, our goal is to let you know 48 hours (2 days) in advance. Sometimes, we must reduce this notice to 24 hours.
- If we need to shut off your water for a short time (less than one hour), we’ll knock on your door.
- If we need to shut off your water due to an emergency, we’ll knock on your door and do everything we can to fix the problem quickly.
Waste collection
If you receive Peel waste collection, your garbage, recycling, and organics will be picked up on your regularly scheduled day. It’s the contractor’s responsibility to move these bins from the end of your driveway to a location where waste collection vehicles can pick them up. Please make sure your house number is marked on each bin, so they are returned to the right address.
Vibrations, noise, and dust
You could feel slight vibrations and experience some minor noise and dust from construction work.
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. Visit peelregion.ca/workzonesafety for more information.
Areas impacted
Installing watermains usually requires digging a trench within the municipal right-of-way. This includes the street and the municipal-owned land between the street and the water service box, a small, round, metal valve located outside on the property line between your home or business and the road. This trench might cause temporary damage to roads, curbs, sidewalks, boulevards, lawns, and the bottom of driveways.
We recommend that you delay driveway paving or major landscaping projects until this work is completed. Any damage caused by our construction will be repaired.
In-ground sprinkler systems
Your front lawn may be affected, so we strongly recommend moving any sprinkler lines in the municipal right-of-way or next to the sidewalk. If you cannot move these sprinkler lines, send us your irrigation map or flag each sprinkler head within one meter of the sidewalk, curb, or driveway.
Tree protection and trimming
Trees in the municipal right-of-way will be protected using temporary fencing. Branches on public and private property will be pruned beforehand if they interfere with construction. The contractor will contact you before pruning any private property trees. If you do not allow the contractor on your property, the branches will be cut vertically at the property line.
Driveway access
We’ll knock on your door if we have to block your driveway for a short time. If a trench blocks your driveway access, the contractor will provide metal road plates. We will work to ensure businesses can be accessed. Contact us if you have any access needs.
Repairing impacted areas
Once the new watermain is buried and new water service pipes are connected to all properties, we’ll repair the road, curb, sidewalk, driveways, and lawns.
Repairs may be delayed due to 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 and usually becomes available in mid-May.
Most sod (grass) farms have sod available beginning in late May. We replace sod until the middle of November, weather permitting, to let the roots grow. If we do not replace it by the middle of November, we’ll replace it the following spring.
Repairing grassy areas
The contractor will replace any damaged sod on the boulevard or your front lawn and will take care of it for 30 days. You can help the sod stay healthy by watering it. A longer watering works better than watering more frequently for a shorter time. Early morning watering allows more water to soak in.
Repairing driveways
- Asphalt driveways: If we need to cut a section of your driveway, it will be repaired by paving a strip over the impacted area, resulting in minimal seams. Peel cannot replace your entire driveway. If you would like to have the rest of your driveway paved, please contact the contractor, N.S.J WaterWorX Group LTD, at 289-378-5240. The contractor will then share contact information for the company hired to do the paving repairs. Please remember this is your choice. If you decide to have your entire driveway repaved, this extra paving work is your responsibility and outside Peel Region jurisdiction.
- Interlock or concrete driveways: If we damage a portion of your driveway, our contractor will repair the damaged portion.
Temporary restoration
The City of Mississauga is planning to complete road work on this street within the next few years. If this work impacts driveways, curbs, sidewalks, and lawns next to the sidewalk, we will:
- Only pave the areas of the street directly impacted.
- Use asphalt to fix damaged sidewalks and curbs.
- Patch your driveway to cover any places we impacted, as the future road work may affect the bottom of your driveway. After the city paves your street, the driveway will be repaired by paving a strip over the impacted area, resulting in minimal seams.
Peel Region repairs are temporary, as the city will complete restoration as part of their road work. They will send you a separate notice about their construction.
Optional protection plans
Homeowners may not know they are responsible for maintaining the water and wastewater pipes up to the property line. If a pipe breaks, it can cause unexpected and costly repairs. Peel has partnered with Service Line Warranties of Canada to offer homeowners optional, affordable protection plans. Visit plansforpeel.ca for more information.
