SUBJECT: Alectra Railway Crossing Overhead to Underground Conversion Project
Haig Boulevard, between Carnegie Dr and Lakeshore Rd E (Lakeshore West Railway line)
Dear Customer:
Alectra Utilities, your local Hydro Distribution company is committed to providing quality service and a reliable supply of electricity to all our customers. In keeping with this commitment, Alectra Utilities will be removing overhead conductor crossings over the railway along the Lakeshore West Line and installing underground cables under the railway.
Alectra Utilities will be working primarily on the north side of the tracks, approximately 100m south of Carnegie Dr, and South side of the tracks, along Haig Blvd.
The surrounding areas of Haig Boulevard, between Carnegie Dr and Lakeshore Rd E will be impacted minimally by construction activities. In addition, the current road closure will be required until February 25, 2022 during construction at the railway crossing on Haig Boulevard, weather permitting. The pedestrian walkway over the railway will remain open during this time.
This project will require significant excavation along the Municipal Road Allowance to relocate the underground and overhead electrical distribution equipment. Additionally, construction vehicles and equipment will be apparent, and present during construction. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Alectra Utilities will adhere to best construction practices, ensuring a safe work zone
Furthermore, entrance(s) to driveways may be impacted during construction; however, every effort to coordinate safe vehicular passage during construction will be undertaken.
Scheduled power interruptions will be required to safely complete the electrical changeover and every attempt will be made to notify you in advance of any interruption of hydro service.
Construction is scheduled to recommence in December 2021, through extended weekday work hours and work on Saturdays, the railway crossing is targeted to be reopened on February 25, 2022, weather permitting. Subsequent to the reopening of Haig Blvd to traffic, minimal thru-traffic configurations may occur in order to complete residual overhead powerline work and commissioning into early March 2022.
Scheduled outage notification will be by phone, please ensure that your primary contact phone number attached to your Alectra Utilities account is current.
Sincerely,
Philander Khuu, B.A.T., C.E.T., M.E.P.P.

Our School Watch program is now open to all high-school students in the city! This is a wonderful opportunity for your children to take part in a Watch program and engage in community safety! Please share with any youth in your neighbourhoods and families! Registration Link: https://safecitymississauga.online/signup/school-watch-member/azwz79qjbj School Watch is an adaptation of the Neighbourhood Watch and Business Watch programs, in which high school students look out for one another and their school. The program focuses on identifying local issues, educating students on crime prevention and increasing the reporting of suspicious activity and crime to improve student safety and well-being. The School Watch courses include information on how the program works, why students should join, and how to observe and report, as well as concise information on common school issues like bullying from a crime prevention perspective. For example, our short course on bullying includes prevention tips and how bullying may impact a students future if it gets to the level of being a crime. School Watch members will be encouraged to report any crime and suspicious activity which they observe in and around their schools. Students will access local reporting resources such as The Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board Online Reporting Tool and Peel Crime Stoppers Anonymous Reporting Line. There are many community supports also provided, including specific resources for Black, Indigenous, and LGBTQ+ youth. All School Watch members will have access to our campaigns, which include courses and toolkits. The toolkits are a guide for students to lead campaigns in their own schools. Students who act as “Campaign Leads” will promote awareness and encourage students to take the campaign courses, while earning volunteer hours in the process.

We have received a number of requests for a third pick-up as leaves have now fallen from most of the trees. After reviewing our budgets, resources and the weather for next week, staff can confirm we will extend the program into this week. With this extension, we cannot guarantee we will be able to collect all remaining leaves. Crews will go back and start in the YELLOW zones and collect any remaining leaves at the roadside, before moving on to the BLUE and then GREEN zones, weather permitting.
You can refer to the leaf pickup route map and schedule to find out if your street is part of the leaf pickup program.
