The City of Greater Sudbury advises residents that construction on Elgin Street, between Elm and Ste. Anne Road, will resume at 7 a.m. on the morning of Tuesday, October 6.

The company engaged in construction of the Elgin Street Water Main Improvement Project, Interpaving Limited, has informed the City that it has satisfied requirements issued by the Ministry of Labour under the Occupational Health and Safety Act to resume work.



Interpaving continues to cooperate with both the City and Ministry of Labour.



Construction on Tuesday will consist of grading the Elgin Street road bed to prepare for base asphalt. Asphalt will be applied between Elm Street and Ste. Anne Road on Wednesday or Thursday, October 7 or 8, weather permitting.



Paid duty officers will control traffic and pedestrian crossings at the intersections of Elgin and Beech Streets and Elgin and Ste. Anne Road during paving operations.



Elgin Street remains closed to traffic between Elm and Beech Streets.



Once the road base is complete by the end of this week, residents and businesses will notice an immediate improvement in the construction zone.



The next phase of construction will complete a concrete sidewalk at the intersection of Beech and Elgin and replacement of lockstone in the remaining sidewalks.
