Here is this week’s infrastructure update for current projects underway in the City of Selkirk.
600 & 700 Block of McLean Avenue – Asphalt Overlay, Curb Replacement, and Sidewalk Renewal
Work on the new sidewalk on McLean is currently underway and will be completed by September 3. Curb work will follow and will be completed by September 11.
600 Block of Vaughan Avenue – Asphalt Overlay, Curb Replacement, and Sidewalk Renewal
Sidewalk removal began on Vaughan this week. Asphalt removal will begin on September 1. Work to install new sidewalks, curbs, and asphalt will follow.
400 Block of Queen Avenue – Asphalt Overlay, Curb Replacement, and Sidewalk Renewal
Work will begin in the coming weeks.
Morrison Avenue between Eveline and Montgomery – Asphalt Replacement
Work will begin to replace the asphalt in the coming weeks.
Please note that these timelines are subject to change. Once construction begins, efforts are made to keep it moving steadily, but delays may occur between different stages of construction.
Why are we doing this?
Replacing the asphalt on our roads will create safer, smoother rides for motorists and less wear and tear on vehicles. Sidewalk replacement will improve safety and create a more accessible route for pedestrians.
Why now?
Our Capital Asset Management Program helped us identify that now is the time. Doing this work now protects infrastructure long-term by making the right investments at the right time to help avoid more costly replacements and interruptions to services later.
We appreciate your patience as these important improvements are completed. If you have questions about any of the projects listed above, please contact CitizenSupport.
