WUC Contract #2024-001 - Turner / Tecumseh / Factoria / Milloy

The Windsor Utilities Commission (WUC) completed a Schedule B Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA) in 2014, identifying a new storage facility and large diameter watermain (referred to as the central corridor feedermain) to improve water servicing and water resiliency with neighbouring municipalities with a corresponding addendum completed in 2023. The central corridor feedermain will service future development and improve servicing capability to the outer limits of the Windsor Water Plant service area.  As a result, the Windsor Utilities Commission (WUC) will be installing a new 1200mm concrete watermain on Turner Road from Memorial Drive to Tecumseh Road East, on Tecumseh Road East from Turner Road to Factoria Road, on Factoria Road from Tecumseh Road East to Milloy Street, and on Milloy Street from Factoria Road to Chandler Road.

In addition, as part of an ongoing infrastructure renewal program, the Windsor Utilities Commission (WUC) will be installing new 200mm and 300mm PVC watermains on Turner Road from Memorial Drive to Tecumseh Road East and on Tecumseh Road East from Turner Road to Factoria Road.

Sterling Ridge Infrastructure Inc., under contract with the Windsor Utilities Commission, is scheduled to begin work the week of March 18th, 2024.  The project should take approximately eight (8) months to complete.  Construction is planned to commence on Turner Road, followed by construction on Tecumseh Road East, Factoria Road and Milloy Street.
