Lorne Avenue - Construction Corner Update #10 - Week of May 30, 2022

As a resident on Lorne Avenue, you are receiving regular ‘Construction Corner’ notices from the Town of Newmarket to keep you updated on the reconstruction project in your area.

Construction is currently underway within a narrower section of Lorne Avenue between Timothy and Millard. Construction of the sewers is done one at a time, from the bottom of the hill to the top, with the watermain following the sanitary and storm sewer. For each sewer, the pipe on the street (the ‘mainline’) is completed first, and then connections are made to each individual home thereafter.

Over the past two weeks:

• The sanitary sewer mainline has been completed between Timothy Street and Millard Avenue.

• The storm sewer mainline has been constructed between Timothy Street and Park Avenue.

Over the next two weeks:

• The storm sewer mainline will be completed to the Millard Avenue intersection.

• Sanitary service connections will be initiated.

The Town is also working with the contractor to plan and schedule the restoration of the Phase 1 areas for work such as topsoil and sod, retaining walls, etc. Residents will be notified prior to the work being undertaken.

We would also like to thank the four Construction Ambassadors for the great work they continue to do representing the residents on this reconstruction project.
