The Municipality of Port Hope held an official groundbreaking ceremony for Phase 2 of the Walton Street Reconstruction Project this morning. Officials reminded residents that downtown businesses remain open.
The construction is expected to last for six months to replace watermain, sanitary sewers and storm sewers as some of the infrastructure including pipes have been in place for more than 100 years.
The municipality has dedicated social media channels on Facebook and Instagram with the handle @PortHopeDigsWalton plus a dedicated website with maps, parking information, project timelines, construction details and project staff contact information.
An office has been set up with staff available to address questions and concerns at 5 Mill Street South but will move to 90 Walton Street in June.
