In February 2021 the Town of Whitchurch-Stouffville published the Environmental Study Report documenting the Schedule C process for proposed improvements to Edward Street. The recommended alternative included the reconstruction of the corridor with a fully urbanized cross-section that extended from Main Street to Millard Street. This included improvements to storm sewer, sanitary sewer and water main infrastructure. Upgraded hydro poles, street lighting and trees were also included as part of the recommended alternative.


Public Information Session

As a result of concerns expressed by local stakeholders, the Town agreed to provide a public information session on the progress of the project during the detailed design phase. This session will provide updated project information including design features being included in the design. You can find the presentation here.


Update

Edward Street Reconstruction detailed design is currently at 90% completion. Utility relocation work along Edward Street from Main Street to End of Cul-de-sac will begin on the week of June 12, 2023 for Hydro One followed by Rogers and lastly by Bell. Timing of the project will vary depending on weather conditions, contractor schedule, and material availabilities. We do not anticipate any service interruptions for the utility relocation work. Though, if there will be a service interruption, residents will be notified ahead of time. This utility relocation work is required to be relocated prior to road reconstruction in 2024.
