Temporary QEW Eastbound On- Ramp Closure at Hurontario Street – Beginning Friday August 18, 2023 at 10 p.m. to Monday August 21, 2023 at 5 a.m.

By Hurontario LRT, Ward 1

What work is taking place?

Starting August 18, 2023, at 10 p.m., crews will work around the clock over the weekend to relocate the eastbound on-ramp at the QEW highway and Hurontario Street. This will make room for northbound traffic lanes on Hurontario Street to use the new underpass structure at the QEW that was built and pushed into place last fall. Once complete, there will be enough space for the construction of the LRT guideway along Hurontario Street that is expected to take place next year. This work will be continuous and is scheduled to be completed by 5 a.m. on August 21, 2023, at which point the relocated eastbound on-ramp at the QEW and Hurontario Street will be reopened for motorists.

A detour route to access the eastbound QEW will be available via The Queensway East to Cawthra Road. The eastbound on-ramp at Hurontario Street will be temporarily inaccessible to all motorists, including emergency service vehicles, during the closure. All vehicles are encouraged to use the assigned detour route as depicted in the map above.

SCHEDULED WATER INTERRUPTION NOTICE – 15 Front St S – Tuesday, August 15, 2023, from 2:00 a.m. to 5:00 a.m.

By Resources, Ward 1

INTERRUPTION DETAILS

Date and Time:         Tuesday, August 15, 2023, from 2:00 a.m. to 5:00 a.m.

Location:                    15 Front St S                                 

Addresses Affected:  10-42 Front St South                   

Project #:                   C-603389

Regional Inspector:  John Sedore

Telephone #               416-706-1114 Ext 3246/47

The Region of Peel Public Works department regularly maintains and repairs the water system to make sure you have a consistent supply of quality drinking water. Sometimes we must turn off your water supply while we do this work. 

Your water will be turned off on Tuesday, August 15, 2023, from 2:00 a.m. to 5:00 a.m. If we need to reschedule this work due to weather or other circumstances, we will let you know the new date and time.

If this interruption may affect an alarm or maintenance company, it is your responsibility to notify them.  During the time that the water supply is interrupted, the building’s sprinkler protection system will not function.  A fire watch should be performed as necessary during time.

After the water interruption:

When we turn the water back on, air in the pipes may make the water cloudy and your plumbing may vibrate or make noise.  We recommend removing the air by slowly turning on your taps from the lowest to the highest faucet in the building (that is, starting in the basement/first floor and finishing on the top floor). Flush the toilets as well. You will likely need to run the water for 10 to 30 seconds.  Run the water until it is clear, and any vibration or noise has stopped.

Important note:  After the water is turned back on, we recommend checking your water meter (usually located in the basement).  If it is leaking, call Water Meter Installations Dispatch at:

  • (905) 791 – 7800 Ext. 3226 (8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. – Monday to Friday)
  • (905) 791 – 7800 Ext. 4409 (After hours or Statutory Holidays)
