Project 25-2146
Streets affected: Sir Lou Drive, Malta Avenue, Ray Lawson Boulevard, County Court Boulevard
Advance notice and pre-design field investigation
As part of the Flow | Central Brampton Program, Peel Region will be replacing the watermains, sanitary sewer pipes and maintenance holes in your area within the next 2 years, as shown on the attached map.
- Watermains are underground pipes that bring tap water from our water treatment facility to your neighbourhood.
- Sanitary sewers are underground pipes that carry wastewater from your home or business to a water resource recovery facility. Wastewater is created when water goes down a drain or toilet.
As pipes age, we need to replace them to provide you with high-quality water and wastewater services.
Important note
Construction will take place in the municipal right-of-way and within easements.
- The municipal right-of-way 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.
- An easement is where Peel Region has legal access to enter your property to maintain and improve Peel’s infrastructure.
This work may impact the bottom of your driveway and the area around the sidewalk. We recommend that you delay major landscaping or driveway paving until construction is completed.
Before construction begins
Before we start construction, we will be in your area conducting field investigations along Sir Lou Drive, Malta Avenue, Ray Lawson Boulevard and County Court Boulevard.
- We will survey your street and use temporary spray paint or flags on roads, driveways, and lawns to locate underground gas, hydro, and cable.
- We may drill holes in the road or municipal right-of-way to collect soil samples, determine ground conditions, or confirm utility locations. The municipal right-of-way 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.
- We will take pictures and videos to help restore the area as close as possible to its former condition, after construction takes place.
We expect these activities to happen between early November 2025 and early April 2026.
Consultant working hours
The geotechnical investigation work will be completed by Envision Consultants under contract to Peel Region. Additional investigation consultants are still to be confirmed. Working hours are from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday to Friday. These hours are consistent with local municipal bylaws.
Traffic impacts
There may be minor traffic disruptions during these activities. If this is needed, we will place signs giving directions.
What to expect during construction
Refer to our short video to learn what to expect before, during, and after watermain construction. The video also answers common questions about:
- Why your water may be temporarily shut off.
- How traffic, parking, and waste collection may be affected.
- How driveways, roads, and sod (grass) are repaired.
Keeping you informed
We’re currently in the early planning stages, so we cannot give exact dates. As your city’s future planning activities may change, we may also update our plans to improve watermains or sanitary sewers. We’ll deliver more detailed information closer to the start of construction.
