EMERGENCY REPAIR WORK – ORANGE AVENUE from KNOTT AVENUE to DANBROOK DRIVE

Last week, we encountered a pipeline blockage on our regional sewer pipe that triggered immediate action to addresses the situation. Crews worked over the weekend to assess the situation and attempt to make the necessary repairs to prevent any disruption to the sewer service in the community. Repair work has already begun and will continue over the next couple of weeks. Approximately 300 feet of pipe are affected which will require traffic control and a bypass system. Given the scale of the task and our commitment to ensuring a thorough and safe fix, the work is anticipated to extend until end of April.

We appreciate your patience as we work on completing this essential repair.

Impacts:

  • Orange Ave. reduced to one lane going west and two lanes going east from Knott Ave. to Danbrook Dr.
  • Knott Ave. reduced to one lane going northbound
  • No left turn from Orange Ave to southbound Knott Ave.
  • Mon – Fri, 7 a.m. – 7 p.m., with possible Saturday and Sunday work based on need
  • East crosswalk will be restricted.
  • Noise
