UPDAT FROM EPCOR
I hope you are all doing well and staying safe. In November 2020, EPCOR began work to replace approximately 22 metres of the sanitary pipe and storm pipe under 184 Street to address the deterioration of the drainage infrastructure.
As updated in December 2020, there was a change in work scope that involved installing a concrete pad below the pipes to provide support. This additional work delayed the completion of the project to January 2021.
The construction is expected to be completed by January 15, 2021. However, inspections of the work area have identified that the sidewalk to the west of 184 Street has settled which requires additional investigation. Based on the findings, there may be additional construction required to properly address the settlement issue. If additional construction is required, more information will be provided once the repair plan is finalized.
Residents can expect that the west sidewalk along 184 Street will remain closed until at least early summer 2021 when the permanent restoration related to the roadway, sidewalk and landscape elements can be completed.
