Hall Street Project Update for the Week of May 22 - 25, 2018

Starting Tuesday of this week, the City, our contractor (McNally) and CP will install storm and sanitary piping under the CP crossing. This work will be done in conjunction with CP, as the City’s Contractor will install the piping and the work required to restore the rail will be performed by forces under CP direction.

The elevating lake levels has necessitated McNally to temporarily plug the new storm system manholes in order to prevent any seeping of lake water back into the excavation area where the crossings will be installed next week. The rising lake level has also slowed progress on the foreshore steps as the water has reached the elevation of the walkway making formwork impractical at this time.
