Work being completed on two major sanitary sewer projects will impact traffic in busy areas of Mississauga in the coming weeks and months.<\/p>\n
Peel Region officials said this week that work to rehabilitate the sanitary sewer at Dundas Street West and Old Carriage Road, just west of Erindale Station Road by Westdale Mall, will affect road traffic for at least the next six weeks.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe contractor will be required to perform work within the left-turn lane on Old Carriage Road. During this work, left turns from Old Carriage Road onto Dundas Street West will not be permitted,\u201d Peel officials said in an Oct. 12 project update.<\/p>\n
The left-turn restriction will be in place \u201cintermittently\u201d until Nov. 30, the region added.<\/p>\n
Project leaders said work crews will clean the sewer pipe and place a new resin (plastic) lining inside to extend its life. They added the work will be completed underground and will not require digging trenches in the neighbourhood.<\/p>\n
Region officials said sanitary sewers \u201care underground pipes that carry wastewater from your home to a water resource recovery facility. Wastewater is created when water goes down a drain or toilet.\u201d<\/p>\n
Weather and other factors could cause delays and extend the timeline of the project beyond Nov. 30, project officials noted.<\/p>\n
The work is being completed by Capital Sewer Services Inc. under contract to Peel Region. Working hours are from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday to Friday.<\/p>\n
Officials said area residents and businesses will be notified at least 24 hours in advance of any temporary wastewater service interruptions.<\/p>\n

During those periods, people \u201cmay smell odours, which will go away within a few hours,\u201d project leaders said.<\/p>\n
