Car driving on Granville Street

Granville Street sewer upgrades

We’re upgrading aging sewer infrastructure in the Marpole neighbourhood, along sections of Granville St, West 59th Ave, and West 62nd Ave.

The existing combined sewer system will be replaced with a separated and larger-capacity system, with 1 pipe for rainwater runoff and another pipe for sewage.

The new sewer system will help:

  • Handle higher capacities of rainwater and sewage separately
  • Accommodate population growth
  • Manage heavier rainfall expected with climate change
  • Protect water quality in the Fraser River

Expect occasional lane and sidewalk closures while crews complete minor rehabilitation work until late July.
