Phase Two of Downtown Alley Rehabilitation Project in Woodstock

Tonight City Council will decide if they want to pay Viewcon Construction Limited just over $920,500 to work on phase two of the Downtown Alley Rehabilitation Project.

WOODSTOCK - The second and final phase of Woodstock's Downtown Alley Rehabilitation Project could be given the green light from Woodstock City Council at their next meeting.

Tonight Council will decide if they want to pay Viewcon Construction Limited $920,664.33 to do the job.

City Engineer Harold deHaan says the project has been a few years in the making.

"We're basically reconstructing three alleys; Hay Lane, Reid's Lane and Dawe's Lane. They've been in the Capital Budget for a number of years however they've been pushed back by other priorities so we're finally getting to them."

deHaan tells Heart FM about some of the work that would be happening in phase two.

"We're going to be completely reconstructing the alleys; ripping up the old payment, putting down new pavement. Putting in new utilities where necessary, new storm sewer, new sanitary and watermain in a couple of them."

With council's approval the work should to begin in late September. deHaan expects the work to end in the spring, depending on the weather conditions we have this fall.
