Project update: Main Street and McLeod Avenue improvements now complete

Last year, significant progress was made in the multi-staged City Centre Area Redevelopment Plan with major improvements in the Main Street and McLeod Avenue area wrapping up. We took big strides, revitalizing the area with major upgrades including:

• Water, sanitary and stormwater main replacement throughout most of the area. This included increasing the size of water and sanitary lines to allow for redevelopment to take place in the area.
• Sidewalks were widened to be more pedestrian-friendly and to create outdoor spaces for businesses to utilize.
• Additional lighting and electrical plug-ins were installed to create more opportunities for speciality lighting, food trucks and special event flexibility.
• Landscaping upgrades were also completed. This included incorporating additional green space with plenty of trees and shrubs to the median along McLeod Avenue. We also added more planters and additional trees in the area, as well as new benches, making it easier to stroll, relax, and catch up with your neighbours and fellow businesspeople.
