Five-Year Capital: Roads and Sidewalks

Looking Forward: 9th Ave. East Superior Street Watermain

This project involves replacing or constructing new City infrastructure, along with rehabilitating the 9th Ave E (Highway 6/10) road. The primary focus of the project is to improve municipal water security of supply to part of the East Hill and all of the East Hill Reduced Pressure Zones by constructing a new “looping” watermain first, followed by replacing the existing watermain on 9th Avenue East.

Project Scope

• Construct a new looping watermain from 8th Street East to Superior Street.

• Replace the existing municipal watermain from just south of 10th Street East to Superior Street.

• Construct a new sidewalk on the west side of 9th Avenue East from 6th Street East to 8th Street East.

• Replace approximately 138m of deficient sanitary sewer on 9th Avenue East.

• Rehabilitate the road on 9th Avenue East and repair or replace any storm water infrastructure
