Sewer replacement on Greenbank Road north of West Hunt Club begins today

Starting today, construction work will take place on Greenbank Road just north of West Hunt Club Road. The existing sanitary sewer in this area has reached the end of its service life and must be replaced. The work is planned to continue until September 7.

To minimize traffic impact, from August 5 to 10 and August 24 to 31 the work will only be carried out during off-peak hours, with one lane in each direction kept open. At peak hours, both lanes will be open. From August 10 to 24, work may occur during peak hours but a lane in each direction will always be open.

All turning movements at intersections will be accommodated at all times, and traffic lights will remain in operation.
