The Department of Transportation and Infrastructure will be closing the Halls Creek Route 15 traffic circle in Moncton between September 15 at midnight and October 5 by the end of the day, weather permitting. The closure is necessary to allow for the Department to do rehabilitation work to the traffic circle, the ramps leading into the traffic circle as well as the Botsford Street and Paul Street interchanges areas.

Due to high traffic volumes and to ensure the construction is done safely and efficiently, this will require closure of the traffic circle and some of the work will take place overnight. The department is working closely with the Cities of Moncton and Dieppe, and other stakeholders to ensure that the impacts on the travelling public are mitigated.

Detour signage will be in place and the department is asking the public to try to avoid the area by taking alternative routes or plan the trip in advance as delays are expected. The Department would like to apologize for any inconvenience to the travelling public and appreciates the public's patience.

The Town of Shediac wishes to inform its citizens that construction work will be carried out this summer on Brown Street. The work will start during the week of June 15 and should be completed by the end of September 2020. The work will include replacement of the watermains, storm sewers, sanitary sewers, granular materials, new asphalt, curb and gutter, sidewalk and restoration of affected work area with sod.

We are asking for your collaboration and we thank you for your patience throughout the work to improve our municipality’s infrastructure. For further information, please contact the Town at 532-7000.

In order to continue providing safe and reliable water, the Town is proceeding with a rehabilitation of the existing municipal water standpipe on Breaux Bridge Street. As a result of this work, the standpipe will need to be drained and temporarily isolated from the distribution system while the rehabilitation takes place.

As a result of removing the standpipe from the system, and until the standpipe rehabilitation is complete, you could experience a drop in the available water pressure and available water volume beginning Monday, May 25, 2020 at 9:00 a.m.

Until the standpipe rehabilitation is complete and the water standpipe is returned to use, residents are asked to minimize their water usage. Additional information and updates will be posted on the Town’s website and Facebook page as needed.

The Town has obtained the required approvals to proceed with the work. The duration of this construction period is expected to last up to eight (8) weeks. It is anticipated that the standpipe rehabilitation should be completed and returned to operation by late July 2020.

It should be noted that during this period the water system pressure will be maintained using the existing reservoir on Ohio Road in conjunction with pumping directly into the system. As a result, the fire protection system capacity will be at a reduced level. Therefore, certain additional precautions have been put in place with the fire department.

We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your cooperation in this matter while the Town continues to complete required maintenance to the water system that will ensure safe, clean drinking water for the residents of Shediac.

Please note that starting this coming Monday, May 25, Town offices will reopen to public access. However, only those who wish to pay their water bills in person will be allowed to enter the reception area for the time being. Until further notice, no in-person meetings with our administrative staff will be held at Town Hall; we encourage those who wish to speak with our directors to address any issue or schedule a meeting to do so by telephone by calling 532-7000.

Thank you for your understanding.
