September completion for Broadway reconstruction
Friday August 8 2008
 
The reconstruction of west Broadway began July 21 and is slated for completion by the end of September. The project involves a complete reconstruction of the road from a two-lane cross-section to a three-lane cross-section, to create a shared centre turning lane, from C Line to west of Diane Drive.
The remaining portion, from east of Diane Drive to Blind Line, is being reconstructed as the existing four lanes. The watermain will also be replaced; no disruption to water service is expected.
Work is expected to start at the intersection of Centennial Road and C Line later this month. New traffic signals will be installed and road improvements at the intersection, such as turn lanes, are included in this project.
In addition, new sidewalks will be installed on both sides of Centennial Road, west of C Line, to connect to the existing sidewalk at Westside Market Village and Westside Business Centre.
Additional road rehabilitation work will soon be underway in several locations:
• Sherbourne Street from Broadway northerly approximately 70 metres
• Town Line from Broadway southerly approximately 400 metres
• John Street from Victoria Street southerly to town limits, approximately 200 metres
• Laneway north of Broadway from Clara Street to Louisa Street, approximately 150 metres
Road rehabilitation work and sanitary sewer replacement is scheduled to start mid-August on Armstrong Street and parts of Little York and Wellington Streets.
