York Road reconstruction phase three
The City of Guelph is completing water and sewer pipe replacement work on York Road between Stevenson Street and Victoria Road. The curbs, gutters, and sidewalks will also be replaced as part of this project. The road will remain a two-lane road with the addition of bike lanes on the north and south sides of the roads.
Work on York Road from Stevenson Street to Victoria Road South will start in summer 2022 and is expected to be complete by Winter 2023. No work will be completed between January 2023 to March 2023.
To accommodate the replacement of the underground water and sewer pipes, York Road will be closed from Stevenson Street to Victoria Road South in both directions with limited local access when the project starts.

Questions
The following question was asked by Dawn Dietrich
1) Where exactly is this temporary road going to be installed?
2) If the 'temp road' will be at the end of the street near the river, how will you ensure wildlife/species at risk are protected and monitored (e.g., snapping turtles laying eggs, killdeer nests, etc.)?
3) Where are the traffic calming measures for Bell Ave, Brockville, Dodds?...we experienced a number of issues last year when there were no calming measures and we are not okay with a repeat of events. (I saw on the website that only Dodds may be getting speed bumps...that will not suffice.)
Thank you for your contribution!
