Watermain Replacement, Sussex Street, Lindsay

The City of Kawartha Lakes (CKL) has commenced a Class Environmental Study to prepare the detailed design of the proposed reconstruction of watermain on Sussex St.  North from Kent St. to Peel St. in the Town of Lindsay. The Public Information Centre will be held:

Monday March 19, 2018
5:00pm to 6:00pm (Drop-In)

210  Kent Street W.
Lindsay, ON

The Study
The purpose of the Public Information Centre is to update the public about the City’s intention to reconstruct the subject streets.  The scope of the project includes rebuilding the watermain to City standard.


The Process
The Study will be conducted in accordance with the planning and design process for Schedule ‘A+’ projects as outlined in the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment document (October 2000, as amended 2007, 2011 & 2015).  The Class EA process includes public consultation as a means to inform the public of what is to be undertaken in their local area.  Schedule A+ activities are pre-approved meaning they are limited in scale, have minimal adverse environmental effects and include a number of municipal maintenance and operational activities.  Schedule A+ activities are not subject to the MOECC appeal process; however, comments will be received by the City (Contacts have been provided below).

Public Consultation
Public comments are welcome throughout the course of the design. A Public Information Centre (PIC) is being conducted to provide the public an opportunity to discuss the project and provide input to the project team. The PIC will provide project specific information including: background information; definition of the project scope; and discussion of the proposed construction schedule.

The PIC is an informal drop-in session from 5:00pm to 6:00 pm. Following the PIC, the design will be reviewed in light of the comments received.  The City will incorporate any potential improvements that can be implemented into the design.

You are encouraged to provide input.  If you cannot attend the PIC and would like to provide comments, please forward your written submissions by March 28, 2018 to either of the project team members below.  Any comments received will be considered in the design process.

Rivera Park Sanitary Pumping Station Construction

Project Overview

The City of Kawartha Lakes wishes to inform you of the upcoming construction of a new sanitary pumping station at the Rivera Park site across the Scugog River from the existing Colborne Street sanitary pumping station. 

Major scope of works includes:

  • new sanitary pumping station;
  • sanitary sewer river crossing by microtunnelling;
  • sanitary sewer upgrades to direct flows to new station;
  • new forcemain and interconnection of existing forcemains;
  • generator and control building;
  • decommissioning and demolition of existing Colborne St. pumping station.

The new pumping station will increase capacity to accommodate future development within the local sanitary service area.

The City has awarded the construction of the project to Maple Reinders Constructors Ltd.  D.M. Wills Associates Ltd. has been retained to provide Contract Administration and Construction Inspection services on behalf of the City.

Map showing the existing and new pumping station locations at Rivera Park

If you require this map in an alternate format please call 705-324-9411 extension 1193 or E-Mail Engineering and Corporate Assets.

Construction Schedule and Work Hours

The construction schedule for this work is approximately 15 months starting from September 2017 until November 2018.  Regular work hours will be consistent with the City's noise by-law, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday to Friday.   When required, some work may take place outside these normal working hours but this will only be permitted at the discretion of the City and will only be done if absolutely necessary.

How you may be affected

During construction, Colborne Street West (east of William Street North) in the immediate construction area will be closed to through traffic periodically.  However, uninterrupted access to local traffic to Carew Apartments south parking lot and to the rear of 140 William Street North building will be provided for the duration of the construction. 

The current Lindsay Transit bus route from William Street North through Colborne Street West to Carew Apartments will temporarily be redirected via Pottinger Street.  Further details of temporary bus routes and schedules will be provided by the City's Public Works Department (Fleet Services).   

The walking trail through the existing pumping station site (on the west side of the Scugog River) will be rerouted outside of the construction zone with appropriate signage of Trail Closures/Detours. 

The south parking lot for Rivera Park and the park area (south of the Sinister Creek on the east side of the Scugog River) will be closed for the duration of construction.  

A major construction activity will be underground rock breaking (no blasting) and removal.  The neighbouring residents may experience some noise and possibility of vibration during rock breaking.

The existing wastewater collection systems will remain in operation during construction and commissioning of the new or modified works and all temporary sewage diversions (bypass) will take place with minimum disruption to the operation of the systems.

Questions?

The City is committed to keeping you informed and ensuring that the works are carried out with minimum disruptions.  Should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact the individuals listed below.  Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.
