Wiltse Watermain Replacement
This construction is now underway and will continue until late fall 2026. This project involves replacing a watermain along Dartmouth Drive, Balsam Avenue and a section of Evergreen Drive. Major excavation is required to replace the infrastructure, followed by roadway paving and installing a new sidewalk along Balsam Avenue from Dartmouth Drive to the daycare centre and Wiltse Elementary. View the link below for further details, including timeline updates.
Manitoba Street Improvements
Update (June 3, 2026): The majority of construction project along Manitoba Street is now entering the final stages, with curbing and paving to be conducted in the coming weeks.
These safety improvements include installing a new multi-use pathway, pedestrian crossings, a raised crosswalk and improved lighting. This project also involves upgrading underground infrastructure including watermain and drainage replacements, ensuring reliable access to water supply for many years to come.
This work is being completed in response to neighbourhood feedback and was identified through a Safe Routes to School study, creating safer routes for people to travel to and from KVR Elementary.
Watch for on-site signage marking road closures along Manitoba Street as construction shifts throughout the neighbourhood.
