During construction

Intersection impacts

During construction there will be impacts to intersections such as closures, flagging operations and delays. Residents must proceed with caution and follow any posted signage or detours.

Road or sidewalk impacts

All roads under construction will be closed to through traffic. Accessibility will be maintained for local traffic and emergency access only. If local traffic cannot be maintained, further notification will be provided.

Noise/light

The allowable working hours for this project are 7:00 am to 7:00 pm, Monday to Friday. During construction, intermittent noise and vibration may occur from vacuum trucks, excavators, dump trucks, power generators, air compressors, paving equipment, concrete equipment, and other machinery. Dust is a natural part of the construction process. The contractor will be responsible for dust control. If dust is a concern, please contact to the onsite inspector.

Parking

Please refrain from parking on the street within the project limits during each phase of construction. Residents are encouraged to park in their driveways or in the designated parking areas outside the work zone. If street parking within the project limits is unavoidable, please ensure the vehicle is not located within the work zone during working hours, 7:00 am to 7:00 pm.

Access (private driveways, services or amenities)

Access to driveways will be maintained as much as possible throughout the duration of the project. Further notification will be provided when access to driveways will be affected.

Due to the nature of the work, municipal water will be shut off to properties for short durations. 48 hour notice will be provided prior to any water shut offs. When an emergency water shut off is required, residents may not receive advanced notice.

Utility service lines buried close to ground surface can be damaged or cut during construction. Residents who find their utility services have been disrupted should notify their phone or internet service provider immediately for repair.

Garbage

Materials are to be placed curbside before 7:00 am on the regular collection day. If required, the contractor will move bins to an appropriate location and return them in reasonable amount of time. Please ensure that your bins are clearly labelled with your address.

Right of way impacts

During construction, any privately owned infrastructure (irrigation: sprinklers, sprinkler heads/hose, etc.), landscaping (gardens, etc.), and decorations in the right of way may be damaged. Residents are responsible to relocate, remove and/or repair personal items that are in the right of way during construction. If any of the items listed above are relocated within the right of way and become damaged during construction, it is solely the resident’s responsibly to restore and/or repair. The County is only responsible for repairing driveways and lawns (topsoil and sod).
