Work Hours
Work will typically take place from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. from Monday to Friday, with work after hours and on weekends as required.
Disruptions
As with all construction projects, there will be noise and temporary inconveniences. In order to complete the work effectively and in a safe manner, some pedestrian and traffic restrictions will be necessary. These will include the following;
- Partial lane closures along Fairford Avenue to facilitate the construction of curb bump-outs.
- Road closure on Fairford Avenue between Coxwell Avenue and Rhodes Avenue to facilitate the reconstruction of this section of Fairford Avenue. Local traffic will be re-routed to Gerrard Street E during the period of road closure.
The contractor will further notify you of any additional temporary disruptions. Every effort will be made to reduce the inconvenience. The City appreciates your understanding and co-operation.

Boulevard Work
Sidewalk reconstruction works will be undertaken in front of properties on the north and south sides of Fairford Avenue between Coxwell Avenue and Rhodes Avenue and at the intersections of Woodfield Rd., Hiawatha Rd., Ashdale Ave. and Craven Rd.
Property owners in the affected areas are reminded to remove any privately owned items from the boulevard. The City will not be responsible for damage to any privately owned items installed on the City’s property.
