Ramsay - 11 Street SE Water Feedermain Repair
The City of Calgary takes a proactive approach to protecting and replacing aging assets. The water main replacement program reduces emergency water main breaks and service interruptions by replacing corroded mains with new PVC pipe and adding protection to reduce the rate of future corrosion. Since 1980, this program has contributed to a 73 per cent decrease in the number of emergency water main repairs.
Water Main Repair
The City of Calgary will be onsite to repair the water main on 11 St SE between 20 Ave SE and the CPKC railway tracks. Work is anticipated to begin on November 25, and is expected to be completed by December 13. This may vary depending on the condition of soil, existing utilities, and weather. We will proactively communicate any construction updates to those impacted by this work.
This repair work will be completed prior to the Ramsay-Inglewood Public Realm Improvements, scheduled to begin in Spring 2025. The public realm improvements include improving connections to transit and nearby public spaces. The project supports multi-modal transportation and invests in better public spaces.
Construction Impacts
Temporary street parking restrictions and/or closures.
Vibrations, noise and dust due to compaction.
Additional traffic and congestion due to construction activities and vehicles.
Tree pruning may be required for the safety of workers and to protect trees from accidental damage.
Regular hours will be 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday to Saturday.
If sidewalks, curbs and gutters need to be removed they will be repaired to original or enhanced condition.
Work will be completed in phases to cover open trenches as quickly as possible.
Traffic Detours and Parking Impacts
Starting the week of November 25, traffic detours and road closures will temporarily be in place.
We recognize the impact of this closure on residential and commuter traffic, transit users, pedestrians, and cyclists, and thank residents for their patience during this important work period. For more information about this project please call 311 and reference Watermain Replacement Major projects.
