How will Construction Impact You?

If you live or travel along the streets being resurfaced, please note:

• Street Access and Parking: Hyde Park Road will be closed during construction only allowing local traffic to access their properties. A detour route will be in effect during construction with the appropriate signage to direct traffic.
• Vibration & Dust-Protect Valuables: Construction equipment can cause vibrations and dust. Please ensure you protect any valuables susceptible to damage. Staff will monitor dust conditions and apply dust suppressants as required to minimize dust due to construction.
• Mail Services: Canada Post will continue to deliver mail during construction. Canada Post will provide further notification and instructions for residents that may be impacted. Staff will provide temporary mailboxes that are temporarily removed or impacted due to construction.
• Waste and Recycling Collection: If your pick-up point is temporarily blocked by construction, the Municipality will assist in collecting and transporting your garbage and recycling.
• Manicured Lawns: The municipality will restore all damaged manicured lawns resulting from the construction project. A mixture of seed and water will be applied by the municipality to such affected locations. We encourage you to assist in the watering process.
• Sprinklers, Flower Beds, Invisible Fences, and Private Infrastructure: Residents are encouraged to remove any private infrastructure and items that may be inadvertently located in the municipal boulevard. The municipality will not be responsible for or repair any private infrastructure damaged or removed as a result of this work.
