SCHEDULED WATER SUPPLY TEST SHUTDOWN – Lakeview Village, Mississauga – Between 11:00pm on Thursday, September 5th, and 7:00am Friday, September 6th

By Resources, Ward 1

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 work on the system or conduct tests.  Hydrants will also be bagged and out of commission in the area during this time.

Between 11:00pm on Thursday, September 5th, and 7:00am Friday, September 6th, please expect a brief water outage (approximately 15 minutes) and loss of water pressure while we work in your area.  If we need to reschedule this work due to weather or other circumstances, we will let you know the new date and time.

Property owner/manager responsibilities during a water interruption

As a property owner/manager, it is your responsibility to:

  • Ensure maintenance, mechanical or plumbing staff are on site during the water interruption, as it may affect internal systems that rely on water such as boilers, fire suppression, and alarms.
  • Notify the fire alarm company if the interruption could affect an alarm system.
  • Have a fire watch completed during the water interruption, as the building’s sprinkler protection system will not function when the water supply is shut off.

After the test shutdown

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). 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 the water meter (usually located in the basement). If it is leaking, call Water Meter Installations Dispatch at:

  • 905-791-7800, extension 3226 (8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. – Monday to Friday)
  • 905-791-7800 extension 4409 (after hours or statutory holidays)

Two lanes of traffic in either direction will be maintained for most works, with short duration single lane reductions only occurring during off-peak traffic hours for select activities.

 

Metrolinx Notice: Impacts to GO Service on the Milton Line

By Resources

Councillor Dasko has been advised of the following information by Metrolinx:

In the event of a labour disruption, only GO train services on the Milton line and at Hamilton GO would be temporarily suspended due to the interruption of rail traffic services provided by Canadian Pacific Kansas City. All other GO lines, the UP Express and Lakeshore West line stations would not be impacted. The Canadian National Railway Company labour disruption would not affect any GO or UP Express services.

Hamilton GO customers are able to access services at West Harbour GO (approximately 1.5 km from Hamilton GO), Aldershot GO or use normally scheduled GO Bus service on Route 16.

Customers on the Milton corridor are encouraged to consider local transit options or access GO Transit services on the Lakeshore West or Kitchener corridors as an alternative. Please note that service may be busier than usual on these lines as a result of additional passengers.

We are closely monitoring this situation and will inform our customers of any changes should a labour disruption occur. Customers are encouraged to plan ahead by visiting gotransit.com before travelling.

Ministry of Transportation Update – Ogden Pedestrian Bridge

By Resources, Ward 1

As this is an MTO project,  I have made several enquires to the MTO Representatives over these past months on your behalf to obtain the status on the Ogden Bridge.

It has been frustrating that the work is not complete and to delay it further, there was an unfortunate vehicle incident in June 2024 which may have compromised the integrity of the bridge being constructed.

The Provincial Ministry of Transportation (MTO) engineering inspections of the bridge are scheduled to start this week and conclude by the end of August. The information gathered during these inspections will then be reviewed by MTO and the CA and a repair plan developed and approved by the MTO. If minimal repairs are required the Pedestrian Bridge could be opened by the end of 2024 or Spring of 2025. If more robust repairs are required the opening would be pushed further into 2025.  In the meantime, work continues on the access ramps to the bridge.

Students will continue to be bussed starting in September (continuing what has already been done since the existing bridge was removed in March of 2023) and that bussing will continue until the Pedestrian Bridge is opened. The school boards will be advised of this bussing continuation shortly.

If you have questions, please reach out to my office, and we will put you in contact with MPP Rudy Cuzzetto.

I will be in touch with you with any updates.  Thank you for your understanding and patience.
