Planned improvements

Phase 1

  • A new storm sewer and outfall on Crerar Boulevard from Crescent Drive to Lake Ontario, alleviating capacity pressure from the existing storm sewer outfall
  • Installation is being coordinated with Utilities Kingston as part of the sanitary forcemain replacement and sewer pumping station upgrades. Learn more on the Utilities Kingston project page.
  • Relining of the existing storm sewer outfall through Crerar Park for increased service life.
  • Select culvert replacement and upsizing on the lower portion of Montgomery Boulevard.
  • Restoration and reinstatement of disturbed boulevards and medians.
  • Full asphalt resurfacing of Crerar Boulevard from Lakeshore Boulevard to Cresent Drive.

Phase 2

  • A new storm system connection between the existing box culvert crossing Front Road, and the existing storm sewer on Lakeshore Boulevard. This connection will improve the existing systems' overall hydraulic capacity and reduce ponding.
  • A new large diameter storm sewer bypass system on Lakeshore Boulevard from Front Road to the existing outfall, designed to capture upstream ponding during large storm events and release it safely near the outfall, reducing historic issues with water flowing overland and flooding backyards.

Construction impacts

Traffic disruptions are expected, with potential for road closures with local access only. Stay informed on any city road closures and find alternative routes.
