Another week of work has wrapped on the Downtown Reimagined Project! Crews are completing watermain, sanitary lateral, and hydrant work on Elm Street between Forty Mile Creek and Mountain Street.

A new 4-way stop is now in effect at the intersection of Ontario Street and Clarke Street following a review of traffic volumes and intersection operations conducted by the Town of Grimsby and Niagara Region. As traffic volumes have increased over time, the intersection was reassessed and determined to meet the warrants for all-way stop control.

Another week of progress on the Downtown Reimagined project sees crews continuing watermain installation on Elm Street between Forty Mile Creek and Mountain Street.

Following yesterday's significant rainfall, Public Works crews continue recovery efforts across the community by clearing debris, inspecting and cleaning catch basins, addressing localized drainage concerns, and ensuring municipal roads and infrastructure remain safe.

On July 13, 2026, the Council adopted a new Official Plan and was prepared in accordance with the Planning Act. The adopted Official Plan is available online at: www.letstalkgrimsby.ca/officialplan.

Following today's significant rainfall, Town of Grimsby Public Works crews are actively responding to localized flooding and stormwater issues across the community.

Another productive week for the Downtown Reimagined Project as watermain and service work kept moving along on Elm Street, west of Forty Mile Creek. That stretch of work is on track to wrap up by the end of the week despite progress being a little slower this week due to extreme heat and air quality, as well as poor trench conditions.
