A major infrastructure renewal is underway on McArthur Avenue and Marguerite Avenue. The work includes the replacement of aging watermains and sanitary sewers, along with related road and utility work with the intention to upgrade critical infrastructure nearing end-of-life to prevent future service disruptions and support long-term reliability.
What to Expect & Impacts
- Some localized road disruptions are expected during construction, including lane shifts or temporary lane reductions.
- Access to properties and driveways are being maintained wherever possible, though temporary impacts may occur during connection work.
- Work will include reinstatement of sidewalks, pavement, and associated landscaping following utility upgrades.
- Pedestrian routes will be adjusted: signed detours are in place to guide foot traffic safely around work zones, ensuring connectivity across the construction area.
