The Town of The Blue Mountains has identified thirteen sections of watermain that have been classified as substandard and require upgrade. Phase 1 of the Substandard Watermain Replacement Program was completed in 2021, Phase 2 was completed in 2023, and Phase 3 is scheduled to be completed in 2025.

Three sections of watermain have been identified by Town staff as part of Phase 3 for construction in 2025. These sections are:

  • Peel Street South from Highway 26 to Baring Street
  • Baring Street from Peel Street to Alice Street
  • Alice Street West from Baring Street to Lansdowne Street/Beaver Street

The construction tender for Phase 3 is scheduled to be released in February, and is anticipated to be awarded before the end of spring. Construction is expected to be completed in 2025 based on the contractor's schedule.

Why Now?

The project will improve water movement, firewater flow, reduce opportunities of stagnant water, increase water quality, and provide operational savings.
