Beginning the first week of September, Gary Parker Excavating Ltd. will begin scheduled maintenance and repairs on Fairfield Street. The goal of this project is to improve the underground infrastructure, including removal and replacement of sewers, water mains, and hydrants.

When the replacements are complete, and it is time to reconstruct the street, we will be adding a new concrete sidewalk along the north side of Fairfield Street, and will be adding some new streetlights and trees as well.

Temporary water service connections to area homes are being completed by the contractor, in coordination with Town of Wolfville Water Utility staff. The work may require periodic scheduled water interruptions, which will be communicated ahead of time. The street will remain open to local traffic, except during concrete work, when access will be restricted for longer periods of time with advanced notice.

The work is scheduled to be completed by November, 2023, though some work may be carried forward to the spring. 

Notifications will be provided online at www.wolfville.ca, and by hand-delivered notice when required.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we continue to improve our Town.
