Temporary Full Road Closure Scheduled for Brealey Drive August 19 - 21
Project Status Update: Road Closure Notice – Brealey Drive from Forster Avenue and Stenson Boulevard
Road Closure Dates: August 19 – 21, 2026
Reason for Road Closure & Description of Work:
A pressure reducing valve (PRV) is being installed on the water main network to accommodate upcoming water main works at Lansdowne Street West and Spillsbury Drive/Kawartha Heights Boulevard.
The PRV installation requires a temporary road closure to accommodate a crane used to safely place the valve. Once the PRV installation is complete, the planned water main works along Lansdowne Street West and Spillsbury Drive/Kawartha Heights Boulevard can proceed.
The road closure and associated construction activities are being coordinated to minimize impacts to residents and road users.
The City of Peterborough awarded the above noted project to Dufferin Construction Company
Scope of work:
The scope of work generally includes; replacements of storm sewers, sanitary sewers, watermain, concrete curb and gutter, concrete sidewalk, road granular base and the asphalt road structure, traffic signals, streetlights, landscaping, tree plantings, pavement markings, installation of multi-use trails, and regulatory signage as part of a full scope road reconstruction. The reconstruction will also include upgrades to the Spillsbury Drive, Kawartha Heights Boulevard and Lansdowne Street West intersections, and the installation of new traffic signals at Lansdowne Street West and Village Crescent.
Lane Reductions and Traffic Impacts:
To facilitate these works the Contractor will be reducing Lansdowne Street West two lanes, one dedicated eastbound lane and one westbound lane. To accommodate work on Spillsbury Drive and Kawartha Heights Boulevard, traffic will be reduced to two lanes, with one dedicated lane maintained in each direction (northbound and southbound).
Access for local traffic and businesses will be maintained at all times during traffic flagging operations, lane shifts, lane reductions, etc. It is expected that local traffic may experience delays within the construction limits.
