View the full map of planned upgrades. The County of Brant is upgrading and extending trunk sanitary sewers in St. George to continue to safely serve the existing community while accommodating planned growth. Upgrading the sewer system now helps ensure safe and reliable wastewater service, reduces the risk of system failures, and supports long-term community stability.

Why construction is needed

  • St. George continues to grow and the existing sewer system has limited capacity.
  • Parts of the system are aging and more difficult to maintain.
  • The upgrade improves reliability for current residents and businesses.
  • Planning infrastructure upgrades now helps avoid emergency repairs and repeated disruption in the future.

This project is about maintaining safe and reliable service for today’s community while responsibly planning for the future.

Your input can help reduce construction impacts

Construction will result in major traffic impacts in St. George, including on Main Street South and Beverly Street West, with road closures, detours, and access changes occurring at different stages. We want your feedback on current plans and routes before construction begins so local knowledge about travel patterns, peak times, access needs, and sensitive locations can be considered in construction sequencing, detours, access planning, and communication, to help reduce disruption.

Once we’ve gathered your input and adjusted plans where possible, the County will clearly show where and when impacts are expected and share detour and access plans as early as possible.

How to get involved

It is important to understand that feedback will not change the overall project scope, location, or need. The focus of engagement is on construction impacts, access, and communication. Your feedback will help us understand construction related concerns, including traffic movement, property access, deliveries, and local constraints. Where feasible, this input may be reflected in construction planning and tender requirements.

Open house

Join us for a pre-construction drop-in open house to learn more about the project and share your thoughts on potential impacts, access and communication.

Thursday, January 22, 2026.
Gaukel Memorial Community Centre, 7 Gaukel Drive, St. George.
6:00 to 8:00 p.m.

A formal presentation will not take place, but staff will be available to explain the project plans, outline anticipated traffic impacts, answer questions, and discuss construction related concerns.

Can’t attend the open house?

All information shared at the open house will be available on this page. You will be able to review the materials and submit questions or comments related to construction impacts and access needs directly with the project team online.

Funding

The project is funded in part through development charges and a provincial grant. Development charges can help pay for certain infrastructure needed to support growth. Provincial funding supports major infrastructure investment. This approach helps reduce pressure on property taxes and aligns with the County’s broader wastewater system planning.
