Wondering where the construction is at in the County Road 42 Reconstruction project? The County of Essex has released photos of the ongoing work, providing community members some insight.
The work is to improve infrastructure, adding new roundabouts, bicycle lanes, sidewalks and multi-use trails along County Road 42 and County Road 43 in Tecumseh and Lakeshore. The multi-year project is expected to increase road capacity and enhance neighbourhood connectivity.
The work includes a road closure on Saturday from 7 a.m. to 12 p.m. for a water main installation. It will be closed to all traffic.
Currently, crews are in phase two. According to Donald McArthur, manager of communications and organizational development with the County of Essex, phase three and four are expected to put out to tender in early 2025. Work is expected to begin at County Road 19 and County Road 42 in spring of 2025.
Photos of phase one and two work are below.
