June 2024

The City of Ottawa has commenced construction on the new watermains, sewers, and associated road rehabilitation work as part of the Greenfield-Main-Hawthorne et al. Reconstruction Project. To facilitate this work, the City of Ottawa has approved the closure of the Concord Street North as outlined below.

What: Deep utilities excavation will be occurring on Concord Street North between Kings Landing and Greenfield Avenue, requiring the full closure of the street in this segment. Left turns out of Kings Landing will be prohibited. Echo Drive will be converted to two-way traffic to allow local traffic to exit at Main Street. Echo Drive (Main Street to Concord Street North) will be closed to local traffic only.

Why: The closure is required for the safety of residents and workers, as there is limited area to accommodate the open cut excavation and the necessary labour, materials and equipment.

When: The full closure of Concord Street North (Kings Landing to Greenfield Avenue) and the conversion of Echo Drive to two-way from Main Street to Concord Street North will begin on June 3 and continue through to August 2. After that, Concord Street North will continue to be closed to all but local traffic through to late fall 2024 to facilitate reinstatement work. The scheduled closures may be modified as needed, depending on weather and conditions.

Where: Echo Drive and Concord Street North between Main Street and Greenfield Avenue.

Who: The City of Ottawa has retained the contractor Green Infrastructure Partners Inc. (GIP), to complete the work.

Traffic impacts

During the full closure of Concord Street North, Echo Drive north of Main Street will become a two-way street. On-street parking will need to be removed to facilitate this change.

Local access for Echo Drive and Concord Street North (west of Greenfield Avenue) will be as follows:

• To exit: Travel southbound on Echo Drive to Main Street and go north (to northbound Colonel By) or south (to northbound Greenfield).
• To enter: Movements will only be allowed from northbound Main Street (right in only).

Local access is defined as those living within the limits of the road closure. All other motorists are required to follow the signed detours and/or find alternative routes of travel.

Note that the southbound closure of Greenfield Avenue and Main Street remains in place until fall 2024.

Garbage collection

The contractor is aware of the garbage collection schedule and is required to maintain access so that garbage can be collected at the curb. If vehicular access is interrupted for any reason, the contractor is responsible to move the garbage from the homeowner’s curb to a common location where it can be picked up. Empty containers will then be returned to the appropriate homeowners/businesses.

Construction disruptions

Green Infrastructure Partners (GIP), formerly Aecon, will take every precaution to minimize interruptions to the everyday life of your family and/or operation of your business, but there may be some inconvenience during the course of the operation of the work, such as delays when travelling through the construction zone, noise and dust. You may also feel vibrations due to heavy equipment operations. Vibrations from construction activities are quite common and rarely cause any problems. We would like to thank you in advance for your patience and co-operation. For construction activity hours of work, the City of Ottawa follows provincial requirements and the City’s Noise By-law (2017-255).
