Construction Update - April 2025
It’s the third year of Ottewell Neighborhood Renewal and we are scheduled to start in May 2025! Work will consist of removal and replacement of sidewalks, curbs, gutters and street lights as well as reconstruction and paving of the roads and all associated landscaping.
This year, the majority of construction will take place from Ottewell Road to 64 Street, from 98 Avenue to 93 A Avenue. Please view this scope map to see the 2025 construction area.
For those who live in the 2024 construction area (92 Avenue from Ottewell Road to 58 Street, 58 Street from 92A Avenue to 90 Avenue, 91 Avenue to 90A Avenue from 60 Street to 52 Street, 54 Street Pocket Parks, and 56 Street cul-de-sac), the remaining landscaping work is scheduled to start at summer of 2025. Landscaping work is highly dependent on weather and sod availability. The City is working with EPCOR drypond team to prioritize the construction schedule to avoid rework in that area.
For those who live in the 2024 construction area along Ottewell Road (from 94 B Avenue NW to 94 Avenue NW), the timeline for the remaining work depends on the scope of EPCOR’s sewer separation project. Since construction is weather dependent, EPCOR work is set to resume in May 2025. The City is coordinating with EPCOR to prioritize the construction schedule for the remaining work along Ottewell Road.
Review the final design for remaining construction
The City of Edmonton and EPCOR are working together to construct Low Impact Development (LID), which will help with stormwater retention and help mitigate flooding.
If you live in the 2025 construction area, please watch your mailbox for construction bulletins that will provide more information along with details on landscaping and access. All residents and business owners are asked to access their homes and businesses through the back entrances and alleys, where possible, during construction. If no alley access is available and/or you have special access requirements (i.e. DATS or a temporary access ramp to the front of your home), please contact the Construction Project Manager, Jackie Sun at jackie.sun@edmonton.ca, to coordinate.
Construction in Ottewell began in spring 2023 and is expected to take 5 years (planned completion fall 2027).
