Watermain installation on Garner Road West to begin September 9

HAMILTON, ON – To safely complete a watermain installation, the City of Hamilton will close Garner Road West in both directions between Shaver Road and Hamilton Drive in Ward 12 beginning September 9th, 2024. The necessary work is expected to be completed in approximately 5 weeks and includes the installation of a watermain directly under the culvert located in front of 467 Garner Road West.

During the closure, local access will remain open for residents who live from approximately 506 Garner Road to Shaver Road, as well as from 440 Garner Road towards Panabaker Drive. 

From 500 Garner Road to Shaver Road and 445 Garner Road to Panabaker Drive, sections of the road have been paved so that residents are able to access businesses or dwellings in the eastbound and westbound directions entering from Hamilton Drive or Shaver Road.

Motorists should take an alternate route to avoid the closure. Please note, an HSR detour has been established. For information on HSR route 44 Rymal detours, please visit HSR Schedules & Detours.

This construction work will not impact Emergency Services and their accessibility to residents or structures in the area. 

The City of Hamilton thanks motorists, pedestrians, and cyclists for their patience as we complete this important infrastructure reconstruction.
