Taking place from spring 2021 to 2025, the Cedar Drive Upgrade Project (PDF) will happen in a number of phases and will extend the sewer system, improve drainage, enhance Partington Creek and provide transportation upgrades. The much-needed upgrades will support new development in the eastern section of the Partington Creek neighbourhood, and will also improve service to existing residents in the area.
This will be the largest and likely the most complex project delivered by the City’s Engineering & Public Works department in the current five-year capital plan.
On Thursday, December 8 and Friday, December 9, City crews will be completing some bank stabilization and tree debris removal work on a section of Cedar Drive, between Victoria Drive and Gilley's Trail - this section will need to be closed - see map of location here.
Ongoing communications will take place with area property owners and other stakeholders as the work progresses, including notification when properties will be directly affected by construction activity.

The objectives of the Cedar Drive Upgrade Project are as follows:
Planning to bring utilities and roads to the east part of the Partington Creek neighbourhood –including the future Burke Mountain Village site – began about 10 years ago. Major engineering infrastructure is vital for the planned development envisioned in the Partington Creek Neighbourhood Plan.
The extension of services is mainly funded through developer fees, including the $16.5-million cost for the Cedar Drive Project.
