Grove Street closed to through traffic
Grove Street will be closed to through traffic during construction. Local access will be maintained. There may be a short-term closure of the Metcalfe intersection for watermain connections.
Pedestrian access
Pedestrian access will be maintained during construction. However, sidewalks may be temporarily closed during construction activities. Pedestrians are asked to follow signage.
Property access and parking
Our best efforts will be made to maintain access to driveways in the construction area during working hours (7 a.m.–7 p.m.) Construction activities and equipment movement may temporarily impact access to private driveway and delays should be expected.
Please let us know early if you have any accessibility/mobility concerns. Alternative arrangements can be planned for.
Tree removals
Some trees are planned to be removed during this project. Residents whose trees are affected have already been contacted during the design process.
City services
