Watermain replacement and improvement
Elite Road and Wembury Road. Project 21-1310 I
Update
- The new watermains on Elite Road and Wembury Road have now been installed. The next phase is to bring the new watermains into service. Properties on this street will now have their individual water service lines transferred from the old watermain to the new watermain.
- A new water service line will be brought up to your property line where a new water service box will also be installed. Where possible your water line will be brought up to the property line using trenchless methods. However, the area around the water service box will be excavated.
When
- We expect to start replacing the water service lines on or about September 6th, 2021.
- This construction project should be completed before December 2021. All work is under warranty for two years from the completion date.
- We will start restoring the road when all water system replacements and transfers are complete, and as weather permits.
Working hours
- Our contractor’s normal working hours are from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. These hours are consistent with the local municipality’s bylaws. We understand this may cause some inconvenience, but a shorter working day would mean the project would take longer to complete.
Interrupting your water supply
- It is our goal to let you know 48 hours (2 days) in advance if we need to shut off your water for an extended period of time (several hours). Occasionally, we may need to reduce this notice to 24 hours.
- On the day we connect your water service to the new watermain, the contractor will let you know that your water will be shut off for approximately 30 to 45 minutes. This will ensure proper notification for short duration works.
- If we have to shut off your water because of an emergency, we will do everything we can to fix the problem as quickly as possible.
