CP grade separation under way in Windsor
advertisement
Yesterday, the governments of Canada and Ontario announced they launched construction on the Howard Avenue/Canadian Pacific grade separation project in Windsor.
Coco Paving Inc. began to demolish buildings, install water mains and set up road detours for the project, which is designed to reduce traffic congestion in the area.
Construction of the bridge and roadway underpass is expected to be completed in 16 months. All other work will wrap up by July 2011.
This project is jointly funded by the federal and provincial governments under the “Let's Get Windsor-Essex Moving” initiative, which commits $300 million for several transportation infrastructure projects.
“When completed, the grade separation will allow traffic to move without being delayed by border-bound trains," said Ontario Minister of International Trade and Investment Sandra Pupatello in a prepared statement.
