June 11, 2025 — The Dog Park at Germain Park will be closed starting June 12, 2025 to facilitate staging for the installation of sewer forcemain as part of the Minto and Germain Street Reconstruction Project.
Work is expected to be completed in the area in roughly one week. We apologize for any inconvenience, and appreciate park users’ patience as we continue critical infrastructure upgrades in the community.
Project details
That $3.5 million Germain Street Reconstruction flood-mitigation project will see one kilometre of forcemain replaced under Germain Park to capitalize on new Pumping Station 17 capacity, in addition to new, expanded storm and sanitary sewer for Mayfair Drive from Tweedsmuir to Minto; Minto Street from Mayfair to Germain; and Germain Street from Minto to Indian. The work will also include new road surface, watermain, sidewalk and curbs for these areas.
