Project resuming April 24, 2023

Watermain rehabilitation work that began in summer 2022 in the Churchill Square area is resuming on April 24, and will be completed by August 2023.

Businesses and homes in the project area will receive water through a temporary above ground water piping system installed along the street while work is being completed and will be notified directly by the contractor if their property is included in the project area for 2023, prior to start of construction. A map of the project area for 2023 is available on this page.

The City will require access to properties to facilitate connection of the temporary water service and to facilitate watermain rehabilitation work.

Traffic Update

Two-way traffic and access for people walking and wheeling will be maintained where possible, but delays are to be expected. Every effort will be made by the contractor to maintain driveway access to properties within the work site.

To stay informed, residents can sign up for road and traffic construction notifications. Also, Access St. John’s is available to residents 24 hours a day, seven days a week, by calling 311 or 709-754-CITY (2489), by email at access@stjohns.ca or using the app.
