Construction Update November 9, 2023

Due to some unforeseen conditions on-site, the contractor was not able to install the final pieces of the storm bypass sewer. Additional concrete culvert/sewer pieces need to be manufactured. As a result, the schedule has been changed to complete other minor works as well as address the issue of broken water valves while we wait for the additional culvert/sewer pieces to be made.

Forecast work for the next two weeks.

1. November 9 – Complete minor concrete works on new storm bypass sewer at Keats/Karen Walk and Keats Way.
2. Date TBD – Complete concrete encasement of underground hydro crossing Keats Way at Keats Way Place. Residents of Keats Way Place should expect some disruptions getting in and out of cul-de-sac due to work vehicles in the vicinity. Please speak to one of the workers on-site if you’re unsure about how to access Keats Way Place by vehicle. The work is to be completed under the supervision of Enova Power and date is TBD in consultation with Enova.
3. November 13 – Replace valve on watermain near Keats Way and McDougall. Water shutdown and repair will start at 4:00pm to avoid disruptions to Keats Way Public School. Residents affected by shutdown will receive notice in the mail.
4. November 14 – Replace valve on watermain in intersection of Keats Walk and Keats Way. Residents affected by shutdown will be provided with notices in the mail.
5. Week of November 20 – Receive final culvert/sewer pieces. Crane in final pieces of storm bypass sewer. Begin preparing for curbs and asphalt.

Although the contractor will be repairing two valves within projects limits, there is still one more valve on McDougall south of Keats Way that City will need to replace following construction. Residents affected by water shutdowns from the repair next week should not be affected by the valve repair on McDougall following construction.
