Notice of construction: McBride Street and 5th Avenue water and sewer upgrades

Copcan Civil LP has been awarded the McBride Street and 5th Avenue Water and Sewer Upgrades project for the City of Trail. Work will include upgrading of underground water, sewer and storm utilities along with road and landscape restoration.

Preliminary construction activities have begun, including traffic control setup, survey layout and equipment mobilization. Major works construction activities are scheduled to commence the following week and will include water and sewer utility installation.

During this time 5th Ave. between the McBride St. / 5th Ave. intersection and the Rockland / 5th Ave. intersection will be closed except for local traffic only. The estimated duration for this closure is 6 weeks. Space is needed to complete the infrastructure and utility upgrades, having less congestion will allow a safer environment for the public, residents and construction crew.

Working hours will generally be 7:00am to 5:00pm Monday to Saturday, however certain tasks may require extended hours. We appreciate your patience while these upgrades are completed.

Construction of the new watermain and services on 5th Ave. will result in short duration interruptions to water services (less than a day) at specific times during the project. In addition, driveway access to homes on this 2200 block of 5th Avenue will be impacted in stages as the construction progresses past each property. Copcan will provide further notice to impacted properties in advance of those service interruptions.

For questions regarding proposed or ongoing construction activities please address the on-site supervisor or contact the number below.
