How is the City mitigating traffic impacts?

To reduce traffic impacts, City staff are looking at drilling to install the sanitary forcemain, if it is possible and cost effective. There will be times when Cedar Drive will be closed during construction (in 2022) and traffic will be detoured to upper Victoria Drive. In the upper section of Cedar Drive, the plan is to install the new sewer main in the old road so it will not be installed until the new road is in place.
