North Bay, ON – July 15, 2022 – A Public Open House will be held at North Bay City Hall on Tuesday, July 26 from 4:30 p.m. until 6 p.m. regarding the planned reconstruction of a section of Main Street.
The project involves the reconstruction of Main Street between Cassells and Sherbrooke streets, as well as a section of Ferguson Street between Main and Oak streets. Construction is anticipated to start in the spring of 2023 with completion tentatively planned for the fall of 2024.
The open house will be an opportunity for an update on the project, to review drawings and schedules and to ask questions of City Staff. After the Open House, the renderings and drawing displayed will be available for review at https://www.northbay.ca/projects/main-street-revitalization/
The project will include reconstruction of all surface infrastructure including curb and gutter, asphalt road paving, concrete sidewalk, decorative concrete sidewalk and various other ancillary works. The last major renovations to Main Street were completed nearly 40 years ago.
Originally planned to move forward this year, tendering of the project was postponed by North Bay City Council following consultation with downtown businesses due to concern about the potential impact of construction at the beginning of their post-COVID-19 recovery.
