ESTIMATED: Herder Drive Rehabilitation

Planned work for 2025 - 2026 includes:

  • Rehabilitation of Herder Drive from the park trail just north of Heenan Crescent to 47 Avenue
  • Tentatively scheduled to take place within the next 3 years
  • Council and administration have not confirmed when this phase of construction will take placeThis work is included in our 10-year capital plan. Before we can schedule the work, we must first investigate the site. Then we can create a design for the construction. We work backwards from there to figure out dates
  • Spring 2025: The second layer of asphalt, more concrete repairs, and landscaping from Hagerman Rd to the park trail just north of Heenan Crescent


Why can't we do construction projects according to a set schedule? 

  • Weather is the boss of construction. If we have bad weather, we must delay projects 

  • Construction supplies sometimes arrive on time, sometimes they arrive late. For example, if concrete supplies for sidewalks are delivered late, we can't start the construction 

  • Sometimes we find surprises in the ground. We make every effort to survey before breaking ground, but sometimes we find underground utilities like gas lines that are in unexpected places. This forces us to create a new plan, which can cause a time delay 

  • There are more surprises that can happen too! We plan things down to the last detail, but plans are never 100% perfect, 100% of the time 

 

 We thank you for all your patience during construction to keep our workers safe!
