Edward Street improvements complete

The Edward Street Reconstruction Project has been completed on time and on budget, the Town of Stouffville reports.

The extensive project delivered a full reconstruction and extension of Edward Street, from Main Street to Millard Street, and marks a major milestone in the Town’s infrastructure enhancement initiative.

The project included upgraded underground infrastructure (upsized watermain, sanitary and storm sewers); a widened sidewalk on the west boulevard and a new three-metre wide, multi-use path on the east boulevard. It also included installation of new street lighting; enhanced landscaping featuring coloured stamped concrete, sod, trees and other plantings; and installation of pedestrian crossovers at multiple locations.

The Edward Street extension was strategically completed before the Town’s Downtown Revitalization Project. As Main Street undergoes major reconstruction, Edward Street will provide a “vital” alternate access route to support continued mobility, business operations and community connection, the Town says.
