About the project
The City’s Water and Wastewater Servicing Master Plan identifies upgrades to the City’s trunk sanitary sewer network. Wastewater from your home flows through the trunk sanitary sewer network to the Water Resource Recovery Centre for treatment. Due to the complex layout of the trunk sewers in the project area, pictured below, we’re studying the trunk sewer network comprehensively, rather than studying individual pipes within the network on a street-by-street basis. The project area includes trunk sewers along Bristol Street, Waterloo Avenue, Wellington Street West and Alma Street. Through this project, the City of Guelph is exploring options for the trunk sanitary sewer upgrades identified in the Master Plan while also exploring how we can deliver other infrastructure improvements identified in the Water and Wastewater Servicing Master Plan, the Stormwater Management Master Plan, and through the City’s own asset management planning.
The preliminary design study will involve collecting field information (i.e. a topographic survey and soil information), evaluating design alternatives, and presenting a preliminary design for the preferred alternative that can be carried forward in subsequent detailed design and construction projects. The preliminary design documentation will be shared on this website upon completion of the project.

Project updates
The project team has completed topographic survey, legal survey, arborist work, and collected utility information. The next steps will include preparing a preliminary design as well as completing archaeological assessments when weather permits in the spring.
