Lorne Avenue - Construction Corner Update #3 - Week of October 4, 2021

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

Over the past two weeks:

• A new section of 200mm diameter watermain was installed on the east side of Lorne Avenue from Eagle Street to just north of the Timothy Street intersection.

• The mainline sanitary and storm sewer for Phase 1 (Eagle Street to Avenue Road) work is now complete.

Over the next two weeks:

• Sanitary services, connecting each home to the sewer on the road, will be installed. There will be very minor disruption to residents while work is being done – the contractor will notify residents prior to the connections being made.

Note: The Town is responsible for the service up to the property line only. No work on private property will occur.

• Testing of the new watermain will take place on Monday October 4, 2021.

• Once testing is completed, the contractor will begin installation of new water services. There will be some disruption to water supply during this phase of the project - advance notification will be provided to any and all affected residents prior to any disruptions.

Thank you to all resident ambassadors for helping to keep the residents and neighbours informed and up to date on the current construction happening on your street. Your generosity in volunteering your time shows a strong community spirit in keeping with the Town’s motto - Newmarket: A Community Well Beyond the Ordinary.

We value your feedback on these updates. Please contact us at 905-895-5193 to provide your thoughts.
