PSA: Evergreen Village Upgrades Phase I Begins July 25

The Town of Paradise advises that Phase I of Evergreen Village Upgrade Project is scheduled to begin the week of July 25, 2022. For the 2022 construction season, work will be completed on Ashgrove Drive, Willow Drive and a section of Evergreen Drive (between Ashgrove Drive and Willow Drive). The project involves water and sewer upgrades (installation of sanitary sewer, storm sewer, and watermain infrastructure) and road upgrades on the affected streets (road, curb and gutter replacement).

Due to the nature of the work, residents can expect traffic delays and disruptions during the project. Traffic control measures will be on-site for the duration of the project. Residents are asked to use caution in the area and follow all posted signage. In addition, for the safety of all residents, there will be no access from Ashgrove Drive to the neighbourhood playground; it can be accessed from either Iris Place or Elizabeth Drive. 

The aging infrastructure in Evergreen Village is among the oldest in the municipality and the Town is committed to completing the much-needed upgrades. The overall upgrade project is expected to take several years to complete, with work being planned for 5 Phases. Once completed, residents will have a better and more reliable water and sewer service from the upgraded infrastructure.

The Town apologizes for the inconvenience caused by this work.
