Engineering is responsible for various construction projects throughout the Township.
Workers are out repairing and improving our roadways and need your cooperation to ensure they make it home safely to their families each day.
Drivers are asked to follow these steps to make our roadways safe for everyone:
- Obey road closure signs and follow posted detour routes
- Road closures are applicable to vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists
- Obey the signs and flag persons
- Slow down in construction zones - drive at the posted reduced speed limit
- Pay attention - don't text or look at your phone
- Keep a safe distance between you and the vehicle in front of you - sudden stops are common in construction zones
For questions regarding Region of Waterloo closures, please visit their construction project page for more information.
