A Sault Ste. Marie contractor has been selected for two underground city repair jobs\u00a0this summer.<\/p>\n
At Monday’s city council meeting, Trimount Construction Group Inc. is expected to be approved to replace an aqueduct on\u00a0Central Street and to fix a sanitary sewer on Second Line West.<\/p>\n
The Central Street contract is worth\u00a0$1.18 million.<\/p>\n
“The project includes repairs to sections of the aqueduct on Central Street as per engineering recommendations from biennial structural inspections completed by Tulloch Engineering,” says Maggie McAuley, city manager of design and transportation engineering.<\/p>\n
“The work generally consists of the removal and replacement of the Central Street aqueduct at Manzo\u00a0Park and a portion adjacent to 75 Central Street, including application of the waterproofing system on the aqueduct,”\u00a0said\u00a0Dan Bertolo, civil engineering technologist with Tulloch Engineering, in a recent report to the city.<\/p>\n
“Surface restoration including landscaping features, walking paths in the park, curb and gutter, and asphalt pavement are also included,” Bertolo said.<\/p>\n
The Second Line job is valued at\u00a0$345,096.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That project\u00a0“includes repairs to the sanitary sewer on Second\u00a0Line West between Borden Avenue and Laurier Avenue,” McCauley said in a report prepared for Monday’s council meeting.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“This repair was previously tendered as part of the 2025 miscellaneous paving contract,” McAuley said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“Following additional site investigation, staff determined that the repair was more complex than originally anticipated due to the proximity of nearby utilities and the need for further design review. As a result, it was decided that the tender would be re-issued in 2026.”<\/p>\n
