9th Avenue East Watermain Replacement

This project involves replacing or constructing new City infrastructure along with rehabilitating the 9th Avenue East (Highway 6/10) road from Superior Street to 10th Street East.

The project is anticipated to be constructed in two phases over 2023 & 2024. The second phase timing would be coordinated with successful application for Connecting Link funding.

This project's scope is as follows:

  1. Construct a new looping watermain from 8th St E to Superior St in a proposed alignment that includes an existing City owned right-of-way
  2. Replace the existing municipal watermain from just south of 10th St E to Superior St
  3. Construct a new sidewalk on the west side of 9th Ave E from 6th St E to 8th St E
  4. Replace approximately 138m of deficient sanitary sewer on 9th Ave E
  5. Rehabilitate the road on 9th Ave E and repair or replace any storm water infrastructure

2022 - Design and Engineering

2023 to 2024 - Construction

Total estimated project funding: $3,260,000

PLEASE NOTE:  Budget estimate costs in 2023/2024 include watermain and sanitary sewer only. The scope of road rehabilitation/reconstruction, sidewalk construction and storm water works is subject to assessment and review but 90% Connecting Link grant funding on projects up to $3M may be available.
