2025 Street Capital Upgrades program begins next week

The Town of Quispamsis Street Capital Upgrades program will get underway next week for the 2025 construction season.

The proposed work is expected to include road resurfacing of all or portions of the streets identified, along with replacement of road cross culverts in poor condition, adjustment to road shoulders and minor ditch reshaping to improve local drainage. Collector Roads may include or continue widened shoulders for Active Transportation purposes.

Preliminary site work is expected to begin in the first week of June and run through late August or early September. Landscaping and driveways will be restored at the end of each project. 

Construction updates will be posted in the News and Notices section on the home page of our website. Subscribe to receive updates using a valid email address. Information will also be posted on our social media channels, including Facebook and X (formerly Twitter).

Motorists are advised to expect traffic delays during the construction period. The Town’s contractor will make every effort to maintain one lane of traffic or ensure flag persons and appropriate signage will be on site to direct traffic through the construction area. 

If construction prevents safe movement of motorists, cyclists and/or pedestrians, the Town may require road closures. In these cases, detour signage will be installed, and the public notified.

Residents are reminded that they are responsible for locating corner property pins at the street frontage as well as underground wire, such as power lines for electric dog fences or decorative lighting wires that pass in or near the ditch line or road shoulder.  Residents should also mark out local drainage systems or drain tile outlets that tie to Town ditches and remove garbage bins from the end of driveways prior to street construction work commencing.

The following streets and areas have been identified for upgrades this year:

• Meenan’s Cove Road - Phase 3 (between civic address 143 and Rockefeller Drive)
