Attention residents in Ward 8.

From the Region of Halton Website

Starting in February 2013, Halton Region will be installing a 400 mm watermain on Tremaine Road from Britannia Road to Dymott Avenue. The new watermain will ensure the safe delivery of water to existing and new communities in the Town of Milton.

To complete this infrastructure improvement safely and efficiently, Tremaine Road will be closed from Britannia Road to Dymott Avenue starting February 25, 2013. During the closure, northbound and southbound traffic will be redirected to Bronte Street. Local access will be maintained at all times for residents of Tremaine Road who live within the limits of the road closure. The planned reopening date is April 20, 2013.

Road closures are only undertaken when absolutely necessary to ensure the safety of motorists and construction workers. The watermain construction will be completed as quickly as possible to lessen the inconvenience to local residents and commuters.
The watermain construction work will be completed by Tedescon Infrastructure Ltd. and is expected to be finished by May 2013. Project updates can be found at www.halton.ca/construction.

Utilities such as Union Gas, Hydro and Bell Canada have already started to locate and mark out their existing infrastructure to prepare for this construction. Please do not remove these marker stakes or paint markings until the project is finished.

Project-related Information and Recommendations:

  • Truck Traffic – At times you will notice increased truck traffic in the construction area.  Please be aware and use extra caution while driving.
  • Noise and Vibration – You may experience some noise and slight vibration due to the work being done. As a precaution, we recommend that you remove small, light objects from shelving and walls. Any noise from the construction will be scheduled in accordance with local noise by-laws.
