Two existing CRD water mains within Goldstream Avenue, between Leigh Road and Veterans Memorial Parkway, are constructed from aging asbestos cement piping, are not seismically resilient, and are identified as being at risk for failure. These two vulnerable water mains are being replaced by one larger water main, which will be constructed from restrained ductile iron piping. Construction for the Goldstream water main upgrade is scheduled to start in January of 2023 and is anticipated to take approximately one year to complete. To minimize construction impacts, the project will be completed in segments starting at Veterans Memorial Parkway and moving west. Work hours are anticipated to be between 7:00am and 5:00pm, Monday to Friday with some night work anticipated. All businesses in the affected areas remain open and accessible.
Anticipated project timeline: January to December 2023
