What you can expect day-to-day

Halton Region is making every effort to minimize the disruptions and help you plan ahead for construction activity. Learn more about what to expect day-to-day, our mitigation plans and how to stay connected on the project.

Advance notice of any service disruption or construction impacts will be provided to residents in-person, through letter, email and website updates.

Below are some impacts you may experience:

• Truck traffic: You will notice occasional increases in truck traffic. Please use extra caution while driving.
• Driveway access: Direct access to your driveway may be restricted for short periods of time. We will provide advance notice of any planned restrictions.
• Wastewater services: There may be some disruption to wastewater services at various times throughout the course of the project. You will receive written notice of any scheduled shutdowns or disruptions, a minimum of 48 hours before the disruption occurs.
• Waste collection: Your waste collection schedule may need to be adjusted to accommodate construction.
• Noise: Work will be scheduled in accordance with local noise by-laws. Some work outside of regular hours may be necessary for technically challenging construction operations.
• Vibration: You may experience some vibration due to the work being done. As a precaution, we recommend that you remove or secure objects on shelves and walls.
• Dust and mud: The contractor is required to keep dust and mud contained.
• Lawn irrigation system: If you have a lawn irrigation system within the public road allowance, please locate, disconnect and remove any sprinkler heads prior to the construction work commencing. Halton Region will not be responsible for damaging irrigation systems that are located within the public road allowance.
• Mail delivery: We do not anticipate any changes or delays to mail delivery. We will provide advance notice if there are any changes.
