Select tree removal is required in order to accommodate early works, including underground utility replacements and the removal of the old 55 Street underpass bridge.
Tree removal near the bridge will occur in two stages, with the first stage starting Monday, June 17 to Wednesday, June 20. Work will be scheduled from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Nearby residents and businesses should expect noise. While there are no road or trail closures expected, there may be minor disruptions to trail users while tree felling is occurring.
A second phase of clearing along the river banks will occur at a later date, yet to be determined.
Clearing will be focused on trees around the old underpass and the greenspace north of the CPR Bridge. See map below.
