The Project
The Town of Pelham is proceeding with plans to reconstruct College Street and Emmett Street between Pelham Street and Station Street in Fonthill. The design is to include the full urbanization of College and Emmett Street, complete with curbs and gutters, AODA-compliant sidewalks, new storm sewers, and the replacement of the existing sanitary sewers and water mains. The project is expected to be tendered for construction in 2027.
The design shall consider improvements to the following intersections:
- Emmet Street and Pelham Street
- College Street and Pelham Street
This PIC will focus on receiving feedback on the three (3) proposed cross sections the Town is considering for these streets to determine the preferred option based on the community's needs.
The engineering assignment involves detailed design, tender document preparation, and tendering assistance for the reconstruction of College Street and Emmett Street.
Public Information Centre
A Public Information Centre has been arranged to provide an opportunity for individuals, interest groups and agencies to review the proposed design. The Public Information Centre (PIC) will consist of an informal drop-in centre with drawings on display to present the project and provide the opportunity for comments.

The PIC will be held as follows:
