Work crews expect to pour concrete curbs this week on the north side of Queen Street between March and Spring streets.
From Spring to Brock on the north side of Queen, they're planning to complete formwork for a new sidewalk in preparation for a concrete pour expected to happen this week.
Architectural consultant AECOM reports an existing hydrant on the east side of Brock was to be replaced today, rescheduled from last week.
Also planned for this week is installation of a new electrical/traffic duct across Brock, north of Queen.
Brock Street will remain closed between Queen and Albert on Tuesday and Wednesday to allow this work.
Access will be maintained to the businesses on Brock between Queen and Albert.
As described by the contractor, here's what got done last week:
March to Spring (north side)
- poured new concrete sidewalk, except at new pole locations
- preparing for new concrete curb at back of the parking bay
- completed underground electrical and traffic work at March and Spring intersections
Spring to Brock (north side)
- installed new hydrant mid-block on July 23
- completed catch basins within the Brock intersection
- worked on installing formwork for new sidewalk
- commenced with underground electrical and traffic work at Brock intersection
Queen Street from Elgin to March will be totally closed for six weeks starting Aug. 26.
The contractor advises that there may be other short-term closures of Queen Street and its side streets, with appropriate notice given.
