Project 25-1340 A
Streets affected: Baker Road and Colony Court
Notice of pre-design field investigation
Peel Region is investigating future replacement of the watermain in your area. Watermains are underground pipes that bring tap water from our water treatment facility to your neighbourhood. As pipes age and our population grows, we need to replace older watermains to keep providing high quality water to you.
As we plan for future construction, we will be in your neighbourhood conducting field investigations along Baker Road and Colony Court.
- We will survey your street and use temporary spray paint or flags to mark the location of underground gas, hydro, and cable on roads, driveways, and lawns.
- We may drill holes to collect soil samples, determine ground conditions, or confirm utility locations. These holes may be drilled in the road or the municipal right-of-way, the land owned by the municipality between the street and your water service box. (A water service box is a small, round metal valve in your driveway or lawn that typically marks your front property line.)
- We will take pictures and record video to help ensure that we restore the area as close as possible to its former condition, after construction takes place.
We expect these activities to take place between February 27, 2025 and April 30, 2025..
Consultant and Working hours
The work will be completed by Envision Consultants under contract to Peel Region. This consultant’s normal working hours are from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday to Friday. These hours are consistent with the local municipality’s bylaws.
Traffic impacts
There may be minor traffic disruptions during these activities. If we must reroute traffic, we will place signs giving directions.
