Utility Work Resumes on Chestermere Boulevard This Week

Utility work along Chestermere Boulevard will resume this week, marking another phase of the Clearwater Offsites project—a key component of the city’s ongoing infrastructure upgrades. This work is aimed at enhancing the reliability and safety of our local utility services, all while minimizing impact on daily traffic.
According to project details provided by the City of Chestermere, the initial phase involves excavating pits on both sides of Chestermere Boulevard. These excavations are scheduled to pave the way for a seven-day operation that will facilitate the installation of a crossing under the roadway. This critical crossing is expected to improve the alignment and connectivity of existing pipelines, ensuring that the area’s utility network is both modernized and secure.
Following the excavation, drilling equipment will be moved from Founders Point to complete pipeline alignments along the south side of Chestermere Boulevard. The work will extend from just east of Marina Drive to the Golf Course area near Lift Station 10. This alignment is essential for integrating the new utility infrastructure with the current system, and the precise planning ensures that any disruptions are kept to a minimum.
Later in the schedule, crews will conduct an augured crossing under Chestermere Boulevard at Lift Station 10. Notably, all these activities will take place outside of the road itself. City officials emphasize that there will be no significant impact on traffic flow. Residents can expect clear and timely notices ahead of any temporary lane closures or minor interruptions that might occur during the project.
This initiative, part of the broader Clearwater Offsites project, underscores the City of Chestermere’s commitment to maintaining and upgrading local infrastructure. It serves as a reminder of the careful balance between enhancing public utilities and ensuring the daily convenience of our community. As the work progresses, citizens are encouraged to stay informed through official city updates and notifications.
