Project Progress
The contractor remobilized to the site in April 2025 to complete the remaining work, which includes the installation of new sanitary sewers and services, storm sewer installation, full-depth road reconstruction on Millard Avenue (from Lorne Avenue to Main Street) and Church Street (from Park Avenue to Millard Avenue), as well as restoration activities.

Millard Avenue will remain closed during the road reconstruction. When tying in the grades of the new sidewalk with existing driveways and when installing new curbs and sidewalks, access to driveways may be temporarily restricted.
