Watermain Replacement on Frontenac Avenue

Infrastructure and Environment Committee
Written By Mike Colle

The City of Toronto plans to replace the watermain and the City-owned portion of substandard water services on Frontenac Avenue from Bathurst Street to Glen Rush Boulevard and from Saguenay Avenue to 45 Frontenac Avenue.

The water service is the underground pipe that brings water to your water meter and is owned by you and by the City. The part you own is from your house to the end of your property, the part the City owns is from the end of your property to the watermain.

This project is part of the Council-approved 2022 Capital Works Program to renew our aging infrastructure, improve water distribution and reduce the risk of watermain breaks.

WHAT TO EXPECT BEFORE CONSTRUCTION

  • Work crews will mark the locations of underground utilities, such as gas, water and cable so that the construction work does not interfere with these utilities.

  • Affected properties will receive a Construction Notice approximately two weeks before work begins with more information about the work.

  • Work in the boulevard in front of homes and commercial properties is expected. This work includes removing and replacing driveways, municipal sidewalks and grassed boulevards, where necessary.

  • The City will not be responsible for damage to any privately owned items on City property.
