York Road construction phase four

About the project

This is the fourth and final phase of the York Road Reconstruction project. In this final phase we are reconstructing York Road, from Victoria Road South the eastern city boundary this includes replacing aging sewer and water pipes and making necessary improvement to the road.

Phase four is further divided into the following stages:

• Stage 1 - Watson Parkway to the east city limit (2025)
• Stage 2: Victoria Road South to Industrial Place/ North Side of Watson Road (2027)
• Stage 3 - Industrial Place to Watson Parkway (2028)

These dates are the City’s current estimate of when construction will be completed given the status of the individual projects. As with any construction project this schedule can be affected by contractor schedules, weather and any unforeseen issues that are sometimes encountered during construction.

Please note these dates may change as new information becomes available.
