Projected start: Summer 2023
Expected Completion: Fall 2023
Description: This project will involve the reconstruction of the roadway of Seaview Boulevard including the construction of new curb along both sides of the roadway and the resurfacing of the entire roadway, the replacement of water distribution, sanitary sewer, and storm sewer system components, and the construction of a multi-use paved pathway along the entire length of the roadway. In order to accomplish these objectives and maintain the existing functions of the it is necessary to remove the boulevard currently in the centre of Seaview Boulevard.
There are several benefits to doing such: it will allow for the multi-use paved pathway to be constructed, two-way street access will be granted to residents, it will simplify maintenance operations and emergency response in the area, it will allow on-street parking to be safely permitted, and it will reduce the footprint of the roadway dedicated to vehicle traffic.
With the proposed cross-section, a new 1.2 m grassed boulevard can be provided between the roadway and the multi-use path. Within this grassed boulevard, trees will be planted or transplanted to ensure that there are an equal number of trees along the roadway when construction is complete as there are currently. This will result in an approximately 9 m roadway, a 1.2 m grassed boulevard with trees, and a 3 m multi-use pathway.
