Map of project limits

As part of the City of Kitchener’s ongoing efforts to provide consistent and reliable service, staff has scheduled road and sewer improvements in your neighbourhood on the street(s) listed above.

These improvements are expected to begin spring of 2025 and will be a two year project. Once a schedule for construction has been confirmed you will be notified. You will also be notified closer to the date construction is scheduled to start on your section of the street, and also how long access to your driveway will be affected.

The reconstruction is being done to replace the older, deteriorated underground services.

The following is a brief list of specific improvements being considered:

Upgrade the existing storm sewer, sanitary sewer and water mains, including additional hydrants as required.

  • Replace existing sanitary and water services from the new mains to the property line.
  • Curb and gutter, and sidewalks will be installed.
  • Upgrade the asphalt roadway.
  • Replace all driveway ramp entrances in concrete.

Progress and major milestones will be posted on this project page. Subscribe to get project updates by using the Stay Informed 'Subscribe' button.

Road reconstructions help Kitchener adapt to climate change

Replacing outdated stormwater pipes and adding green infrastructure during road construction makes Kitchener more resilient to future flooding caused by climate change. This road reconstruction project is funded in part by the Government of Canada.

    During the next few weeks, you may observe surveyors undertaking a detailed field survey in your neighbourhood. The survey is being completed in preparation for the reconstruction of the street listed above.

    As is common with many city reconstruction projects, the service of a consulting engineering firm has been arranged to work with City of Kitchener staff. The firm of Arcadis IBI Group has been selected for this project.

    In order to gather the required details, the survey will include the frontage of your property as well as the street. The purpose of this survey is to locate all existing features (trees, gardens, steps and walkways, etc.) on the plans for preliminary study and final design.

    The surveyors should not interfere with your regular activities but will identify themselves if you have any questions.

    More information about the project will be made available for all members of the public including owners and residents that will be directly affected by the proposed improvements.

    It is anticipated that construction will occur in the spring of 2025 and be completed by December 2027. However, there is potential for some works in 2028.
