Saugeen Shores will be reconstructing Bricker Street from Lloyd Street to Maple Drive this spring. The project includes a full roadway reconstruction with new curb and gutter, along with the replacement of underground infrastructure, including the sanitary sewer, watermain and services, and the stormwater sewer network, to support long‑term reliability and service.

• Construction is expected to begin in early April and will take approximately three months, weather permitting.
• Work will generally occur Monday to Friday, from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. with no construction on weekends, outside daylight hours, or during statutory holidays.

Traffic, Pedestrian Access & Parking

• During the construction project, local traffic flow will be maintained throughout the construction project, where possible.
• Pedestrian access will be maintained at all times. Certain areas may be enclosed using modular safety fencing or barrels to ensure public safety while allowing safe passage.
• Emergency vehicle access for police, fire, and medical response will be maintained at all times.
• At times, access through the site area may be unavailable. Detours will be in place.

Waste Collection and Deliveries

• If construction disrupts regular garbage or recycling pickup, the Contractor will transport bins to the ends of the construction zone for collection. To assist in returning bins to the correct properties:
  • Please ensure bins are clearly labeled with your address.
  • Have them placed outside by 7:00 a.m. on collection days.
• The Contractor will also coordinate access for private waste collection services, where applicable.
• The Contractor will work directly with affected properties to ensure uninterrupted access for mail and package deliveries throughout the project.

Temporary Water Services and Interruptions

This project requires the use of temporary water services on Bricker Street. The water services will be connected above ground and may require crossings of driveways. The Contractor will do their best to install these so that there is minimal impact but there may be temporary mounding within driveways to protect the watermain.

Brief water service interruptions may occur during reconnections. You will be notified in advance of any planned outages. In the event of unexpected issues or emergency repairs (e.g. a watermain break), service will be restored as soon as possible.
