West King Edward upgrades

In summer 2022, we began critical upgrades to water, sewer, and street infrastructure along West King Edward Avenue from Arbutus Street to Dunbar Street. We are also adding green rainwater infrastructure.

Our work includes installing 1.5 kilometres of new water main and a replacement of the existing combined sewer with a separated and larger capacity system with one pipe for rainwater runoff and a second pipe for sanitary sewer. This new water and sewer infrastructure will have a life expectancy of 100 years.

We're installing a bike lane on West King Edward Street between Quesnel Drive and Dunbar Street. Based on community feedback, we’ve adjusted the design to keep the parking lane next to the curb and place a painted bike lane beside the travel lane.
