Waterline Upgrade – River Road

06/15/2009

The Mohawk Council of Kahnawake would like to inform all Kahnawakeron:non that the existing main waterline from the River Road by the Town Garage to the Canadian Pacific Railway Tunnel on the Old Malone Highway will be replaced. The works are scheduled to start on Wednesday, June 17, 2009 and will continue until August 2009, weather permitting.

Capital Construction Crews will be replacing the water line to ensure better service to the community for our future needs. Upon completion of the works, the road will be resurfaced with new asphalt.

The project will be carried out in segments to minimize inconvenience to all community members. A temporary water line will be installed to ensure service to all residents during construction.

Residents in the area may be inconvenienced with temporary loss of water, dust and noise from trucks and equipment, detours and temporary road closures. Residents will be notified at least one day prior to having the water turned off. Proper road signalization will be installed to warn of the construction limits. The community will also be notified when a road closure is scheduled.

Your patience and cooperation throughout this project is greatly appreciated. Please contact the Technical Services Office at 450-635-1016 if further information or special requests are needed.
