Terminal Avenue Upgrades – Phase 1 C1286
Project Description
UPDATES: Paving will be completed in the next few weeks, concrete by mid June and the landscaping by early August 2024.
Gordon Street crosswalk at Terminal Ave CLOSED until April 2024 (see attached Gordon Street Xwalk).
The Terminal Avenue Upgrades Phase 1 Project is a comprehensive upgrade of utilities and public realm improvements from Commercial Street to Esplanade and includes:
- Storm Sewer and Watermain Replacements
- Re-routing sidewalks at Pioneer Square Park and the Italian Fountain to provide a buffer to pedestrians from Terminal including raised crossings at Commercial Street and Gordon Street
- Upgraded street lighting for vehicles and increased lighting through Italian Fountain for pedestrians
- New traffic signals at Commercial Street, Gordon Street and Esplanade with real time connection and revised timings to reduce delays
- Native and drought-resistant plantings at Italian Fountain and Pioneer Square Park for a natural feel. Landscaping is designed to meet CPTED (Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design) to promote comfortable travel through the area without impeding sight lines
- Cyclist crossings at Esplanade and Terminal as part of the Downtown Cycling Loop.

General Considerations
- While there will be delays during peak travel times, through traffic will be permitted on Terminal Avenue with one lane open in each direction.
- Travel speeds will be lower in the construction zone and there will be some restrictions on turning from time to time.
- Pedestrian crossings will be maintained at Esplanade and Commercial Streets.
- All businesses will remain open during construction with a minimum of one access route.
- Parking at Victoria Crescent, Cavan Street, Shaw Lane and the Port Place Mall will be accessible with only minor interruptions.
- Typical hours of work for this project will be Monday to Friday, 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with work after hours and weekends as required.
- Construction noise and vibration should be expected during working hours.
- If you live in the area and have young children, please advise them of the dangers of construction and the limited visibility of heavy equipment and trucks.
Construction Value: $7,300,000.00
Estimate Construction Start Date: July 4, 2023
