We often hear people joke that there are two seasons in Ottawa: winter and construction season. Well, they’re not wrong! This year, the City will invest approximately $702 million in city infrastructure in order to continue to provide vital services to residents, businesses and visitors – everything from safe drinking water, to the roads, bridges, sidewalks, pathways used to get around the city, to the stormwater ponds collecting rainwater, to the underground pipe network effectively transporting wastewater, to the City’s sewage treatment facility.
To find out more about how this year’s construction projects may affect you or how you get around in our beautiful city this summer please visit the City’s web site here .
