As construction on the Hazel McCallion Line Light Rail Transit progresses, communities in Mississauga South can expect the following construction activities in the coming months:
- Road widening activities on the east side of Hurontario Street, including construction of the multi-use path.
- Civil works will realign Oriole Avenue further east, between Eaglewood Boulevard and Inglewood Drive, adjacent to the new Mary Fix Creek floodwalls.
- Installation of guideway and track works connecting Port Credit Station and Eaglewood along the west side of Hurontario Street.
- Removal of old telecommunication and hydro poles along the west side of Hurontario to help facilitate the permanent restoration of driveways and exiting boulevard.
- Installation of new hydro poles and the pulling of overhead and underground electrical cables, connecting adjacent properties to the new hydro infrastructure with temporary power outages
- Installation of permanent traffic signals at Park Street, Mineola Road, Indian Valley/Pinewood Trail and Pinetree Way intersections.
As construction staging moves to the center of the roadway for guideway, track, and LRT stop construction, we remind the motorists that permanent turning restrictions will be implemented to ensure the safe flow of traffic.
Most work is scheduled from Monday to Saturday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. and will take place within the staged area separated by traffic barrels and temporary fencing. Temporary closures of roadways at intersections will be required to ensure that crews onsite are able to safely complete the work. Some overnight and weekend work may also be required. Additional notification will be provided when there is a requirement for a temporary road closure, overnight, or Sunday work. We will also communicate with individual property owners concerning potential property access requirements such as temporary power outages, utility connections, and temporary driveway closures for final restoration and boulevard grading. Additional signage will also be placed to inform motorists and pedestrians about any sidewalk closures or changes to traffic configuration.
The attached construction notice has been posted on our website and will be hand delivered to residents in the area over the coming weeks.
