Asphalt Surface Rehabilitation
The City uses a Pavement Management System (PMS) to plan, design, construct, and maintain the road network. Every five years, Engineering completes a city-wide pavement condition survey that measures surface defects, cracking, and overall ride quality. The data is analyzed through the PMS to determine which road segments should be resurfaced or reconstructed.
Arterial and collector roads are prioritized because they carry the highest traffic volumes, connect major destinations, and have the greatest impact on overall network performance. Local residential streets are generally scheduled once their pavement condition has deteriorated further.

RESURFACING Removes and replaces the asphalt surface with new pavement. May include localized repairs to curbs, gutters, and catch basins where warranted.
|
|
RESIDENTIAL RESURFACING A dedicated program focused on resurfacing residential streets to extend pavement life.
|
|
RAILWAY CROSSINGS Rehabilitation of pavement at railway grade crossings. Work is coordinated with CN and CPKC Rail.
|
|
MISCELLANEOUS ROAD PAVING Spot repairs to small sections of arterial and collector roads to restore drivability and reduce ongoing maintenance needs.
|
|
MISCELLANEOUS CITY FACILITY PAVING Asphalt resurfacing at City-owned parking lots, driveways, and facility entrances.
|
|
Roundabout and Reconstruction
ROUNDABOUT Replacement of signalized intersections with new roundabouts to improve traffic flow and reduce collision severity.
|
|
RECONSTUCTION Full-depth reconstruction of the roadway, including excavation, placement of new granular base, asphalt paving, and installation of curbs, sidewalks, and lighting. Work also includes replacement of the sanitary sewer and watermain.
|
|
Sidewalks and Pedestrians Crossings
SIDEWALK REPLACEMENT Removal and reconstruction of existing sidewalks to restore condition and maintain accessibility and safety.
|
|
NEW SIDEWALK Construction of new sidewalks or multi-use trails to expand pedestrian connectivity. Locations are prioritized using the City’s pedestrian priority network, considering roadway classification and proximity to schools, transit routes, and parks.
|
|
PEDESTRIAN CROSSING New pedestrian crossings are installed where warranted, based on traffic volumes, operating speeds, and pedestrian activity.
|
Mid-Block Pedestrian Signals – Pedestrian-activated traffic signals that provide controlled crossing points at mid-block locations. Pedestrian Crossovers (PXOs) – Marked crossings that include pavement markings, signage, and, in some cases, flashing yellow lights.
|
PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE REHABILITATION Repair or replacement of existing pedestrian bridges that have reached the end of their service life.
|
|
NEW PEDESTRIAN BRIDGES Construction of new pedestrian bridges to enhance connectivity within the pedestrian and active transportation network, and to improve access to transit facilities and stops.
|
|
MISCELLANEOUS CONCRETE WORK |
|
Sewer & Watermains
Many roadway projects are coordinated with underground infrastructure upgrades, including sanitary sewers, watermains, and storm sewers.
FULL RECONSTRUCTION Replacement of sanitary sewers and watermains, followed by full-depth roadway reconstruction, including curbs, sidewalks, and lighting.
|
|
WATERMAIN & RESURFACING, SEWER REPLACEMENT & STREETLIGHT REPAIRS Replacement of underground sanitary sewer and watermain, combined with asphalt resurfacing and streetlight repairs.
|
|
SANITARY MAIN Replacement of underground sanitary sewer and watermain, combined with asphalt resurfacing and streetlight repairs.
|
WATERMAIN & SANITARY REPLACEMENT Replacement of sanitary sewers, combined with reconstruction of the roadway.
|
|
WATERMAIN LOOPING Extension of watermains to improve water quality, system pressure, and reliability. |
|
STORM SEWER Construction of new storm sewers to enhance drainage and reduce localized flooding. Work is planned following the City’s Stormwater Management Plan.
|
|
Cement Mortar Lining
Cleaning and re-lining of existing watermains with cement mortar to improve water quality, hydraulic capacity, and fire flow.

Hot-in Place Asphalt
This rehabilitation technique involves heating the existing asphalt, milling the upper layer, adding rejuvenating agents and supplementary asphalt, and re-laying the material in a single continuous operation.
