Peel Region has identified the need for a new gravity trunk sewer along the Queensway East, which will provide the required level of service to support growth in the City of Mississauga. The Queensway East Trunk sewer (QET) will span from Hurontario Street to Etobicoke Creek.
The City of Mississauga, under the Noise Bylaw, is allowing work to be carried out by the contractor (Geophysics GPR International Inc.) overnight. The work involves conducting a land survey for the purpose of identifying the quality of the soil and rock. This overnight work will occur along the north end of Queensway East at Stanfield Road intersection. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience caused by this work.
Schedule
This overnight work is expected to take place for multiple evenings, from Wednesday, October 23 to Thursday October 24, 2024. Additional nights may be required due to unpredictable delays, such as poor weather conditions.
Traffic impacts
The night shift will require a temporary lane closure on Queensway East at the intersection of Stanfield Road between the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. Vehicles heading southbound on Stanfield Road will be rerouted through Middlegate Road and Haines Road to Queensway East and vice versa for those heading northbound. Signage will be available for detour route directions.
Noise
We do not anticipate significant noise or vibrations above normal daytime construction levels during these operations. Efforts will be made to reduce the impact on nearby residents as much as possible.
Safety during construction
Construction zones require extra caution to keep everyone safe – pedestrians, cyclists, drivers, and construction workers. When driving, walking, or biking through the construction area, please be aware of your surroundings, watch for construction crews and other road users, slow down, account for delays, and consider other routes if possible.
