The City of Toronto is planning a number of improvements to O’Connor Drive, from Glenwood Crescent to Bermondsey Road that help to address basement flooding, pedestrian safety and streetscape. Once complete, this project will improve conditions for people walking and driving and better manage traffic flow. This Council-approved work was identified through the O’Connor Drive Avenue Study, conducted in 2012.
Our contractor has completed the underground CCTV work.
Mobilization and construction for the sewer upgrades have started. The sewer upgrades are expected to last approximately five weeks. Work will take place on O’Connor Drive between Glenwood Crescent and St. Clair Ave E.
A holiday shutdown will occur from December 19 to January 13, 2023.
Our contractor is currently completing the pre-construction inspection and doing underground CCTV work. This preliminary work will continue into late January.
A Construction notice has been mailed out to residents and businesses.
The construction will be carried out in several phases. The first phase will include the replacement and upgrade of the sewers. Road reconstruction and streetscaping work will begin in spring 2023.
A Pre-Construction notice and Lead in Drinking Water Fact Sheet have been mailed out to residents and businesses.
A Construction Notice will be mailed out at least two weeks in advance of any work. This notice will include details on the construction staging and traffic management.
