📣 2025 PAVEMENT RENEWAL PROJECTS

The Town of Bridgewater’s 2025 Pavement Renewal Projects, including planing and paving of selected street surfaces, will be taking place at locations throughout Bridgewater beginning the week of August 25.

This year, renewal project work areas will include:

- King Street (Brown Street to 1095 King Street)

- York Street (Victoria Road to Empire Street)

- High Street (163 High Street to Anne Street)

- Elizabeth Avenue (Christie Street to 39 Elizabeth Avenue)

- Sunset Drive (Pinecrest Boulevard to 31 Sunset Drive)

- Dublin Avenue (Regent Street to DesBrisay Drive)

- Miller Drive (Pinehurst Avenue to 64 Miller Drive)

For a map of these projects, please visit www.bridgewater.ca/roads.

The contractor for the project is Dexter Construction Ltd., and completion is expected to take approximately three weeks depending on weather conditions.

Crews will plane off old pavement in the above listed project areas over a number of days before returning to complete paving in the project areas. Traffic control will be in place during active work.

As a result, motorists should expect to encounter temporary dips and rises in asphalt when entering and leaving work areas. Please drive with care and slow to appropriate speeds to ensure the safety of you, your vehicle, and others around you.

Every effort will be made to minimize the disruption to residents in order to complete the work, however motorists are advised to expect some brief traffic delays in and around project areas.

In total, the Town of Bridgewater has allocated approximately $800,000 toward pavement renewal this year. That budget does not include additional allocations for new streets or other project areas where underground infrastructure or intersection improvement work is taking place.

WHAT TO EXPECT
Traffic delays, dust, noise and heavy equipment are common elements of planing and paving. We are committed to providing a work site that is safe and orderly.

WORK HOURS
Working hours are generally 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. It should be anticipated that the contractor might choose to work longer hours and weekends to complete the work, on schedule.

WASTE COLLECTION
Regularly scheduled solid waste collection will continue as normal in work areas. Residents are reminded to have items to the curb prior to 8:00 a.m.

SPECIAL NEEDS
Individuals with special needs who may be uniquely impacted by this project should contact the Project Manager as soon as possible to make them aware of your situation. We will work with you in an attempt to minimize your inconvenience as much as possible.
