Project 24-2151
Watermain and sanitary sewer replacement and improvement
Roads affected: Rutherford Road North from Archdekin Dr to Queen St. E.
Peel Region is investigating future replacement of the watermain and sanitary sewer system in your area.
- Watermains are underground pipes that bring tap water from our water treatment plants to your area.
- Sanitary sewers are underground pipes that carry wastewater from your home or business to a wastewater treatment plant. Wastewater is created when water goes down the drain or is flushed down the toilet.
As pipes age and our population grows, we need to repair and replace older watermains and sewers to keep providing high quality water and wastewater services to you.
As we plan for future construction, we will be in your neighborhood conducting field investigations along Rutherford Road North from Archdekin Dr to Queen St. E.
- 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 August 21, 2024 and August 23, 2024.
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.
In 2023, we plan to begin construction on Dartford Road, Doncaster Drive, Crescent Hill Drive South, John Street, Nanwood Drive, and Tullamore Road. Residents on these streets will receive a notice before construction begins.
Traffic impacts
There may be minor traffic disruptions during these activities. If we must reroute traffic, we will place signs giving directions.
