Construction details
To support growth in South Peel and optimize the sanitary sewer collection system through the Lakeshore corridor, Peel Region is constructing a 2400mm diameter sanitary sewer and 750mm diameter watermain along Lakeshore Road, from Jack Darling Memorial Park to Elmwood Avenue.
Watermains are underground pipes that bring tap water from our water treatment plants to your neighbourhood. As our population grows, we need to build larger watermains to keep providing high quality water services
Sanitary sewers are underground pipes that carry wastewater from your home or business to a wastewater treatment plant. Wastewater is created when water goes down the drain or is flushed down the toilet. As our population grows, we need to build larger sewers to keep providing high quality wastewater services.
About the project
The new 2400mm sanitary sewer will be installed underground by a tunnel boring machine. There will be construction compounds along Lakeshore Road at Jack Darling Memorial Park, at Richards Memorial Park, on Pine Avenue, on Wesley Avenue, Front Street North (within the parking lot and Marina Park area), and the city parking lot at Elmwood Avenue. These compounds are required to insert the tunnel boring machine, mine the tunnel, install the sanitary sewer pipe, and to install access maintenance holes along the route at strategic locations for future sanitary sewer connections.
The new 750mm watermain will be installed by both open cut and trenchless methods, with the section of watermain from Shawnmarr Road to Elmwood Avenue N installed in tunnel via a microtunnel boring machine. Compounds will be required where the tunnel boring machine is being inserted underground and pipe installed.
Where the watermain is being installed within an excavation on the roadway, lane closures will be required.
June 19, 2025. With construction season underway, Peel Region is reminding residents to sign up for email notices about upcoming watermain and sanitary sewer construction in their neighbourhood. Subscribers will be notified of project timelines, service interruptions, and traffic impacts, helping them plan ahead.
Peel Region maintains the underground watermains and sanitary sewers that provide clean drinking water and collect wastewater in Brampton, Caledon, and Mississauga. As these systems age and the population continues to grow, infrastructure upgrades are essential to maintaining reliable, high-quality service.
Watermain construction can temporarily affect road access, parking, water service, and waste collection. By signing up for Peel’s e-notice service, residents can stay informed and better understand the benefits of local construction projects.
Peel Region remains committed to delivering safe, reliable water and wastewater services as it continues to invest in its world-class water system and a thriving community for life.

Please be advised that there will be upcoming grinding and paving operations scheduled for Dixie Road from Larchview Trail to the South Service Road during the weeks of June 2 and June 9, 2025.
Grinding work will begin on Monday June 2 but no detours will be required. However, please expect possible delays in the area.
Paving operations are expected to occur on Sunday June 8 to Wednesday June 11 during the hours of 7:00pm to 6:00am. During these times, the access to the south entrance to Dixie Outlet Mall will be closed.
Residents and visitors can expect to see the City’s budget dollars hard at work as the City moves forward with its 2025 construction season. With an estimated budget of more than $117 million*, there are 23 new projects and eight projects continuing from 2024. This includes work on roads, sidewalks, bridges, bike lanes, trails and stormwater infrastructure. This work is essential for keeping road users moving safely and reducing the risk of flooding by managing stormwater.
Construction projects within the City’s Roads and Stormwater Capital Program focus on repairing, maintaining and expanding. This includes road resurfacing, sidewalk construction, bridge repairs, creek erosion control work and rehabilitation, and construction and maintenance of stormwater management facilities, like stormwater ponds, drainage systems and pumping stations.
Construction season highlights for 2025
Active transportation
It’s important that residents can travel actively, whether it’s by foot, bike or mobility device. The City continues to prioritize providing safe, reliable and sustainable transportation options.
Key projects include:
Construction will begin on a multi-year project to build a new active transportation bridge in Port Credit, with new cycling facilities, pedestrian crossings and intersection improvements.
Construction will begin on a multi-year project to widen Ninth Line (between Eglinton Avenue West and Derry Road West) to accommodate new cycling facilities.
Improvements will be completed on the Living Arts Drive active transportation infrastructure, including intersection upgrades, enhancements to pedestrian crossings and pathways, and protected bike lanes.
Stormwater management
The City continues to do construction work to help reduce flood risk, protect property from intense rainfall and preserve waterways and wildlife. This includes maintenance of stormwater infrastructure and erosion prevention and repair along creeks and waterways.
Key projects include:
Construction of the Doug Leavens Boulevard pumping station to reduce basement water infiltration in the Lisgar area.
The Malton Flood Relief Project, including installation of a new storm sewer.
Cooksville Creek improvements and flood protection, including culvert removal and installation of the new King Street bridge.
Erosion control and rehabilitation work along Etobicoke Creek, Cooksville Creek, Sawmill Creek, Mimico Creek and Sheridan Creek.
Road resurfacing
The City’s Road Resurfacing Program involves replacing asphalt on the road and repairing curbs and sidewalks when needed. With a $30 million investment in the program this year, 72 streets are scheduled to be resurfaced.
When a street is being resurfaced, work can also take place on boulevards, sidewalks and the City’s portion of driveways. It is recommended that residents delay any renovations to their lawn or driveway, including repaving, until the work is complete. Personal items located close to the sidewalk or boulevard, such as lights, sprinklers, décor and temporary fencing, should also be removed to avoid damage. Residents will receive a pre-construction notice in the mail if their street is scheduled for resurfacing this year.
