Construction Update - March 2024
It’s the first year of Boyle Street Neighbourhood Renewal and we are scheduled to start at the end of April! Work will consist of reconstruction and paving of the roads, removal and replacement of public sidewalk, curb, gutter and street lighting.
This year, the majority of construction will take place from 92 Street to 97 Street. Please view this scope map to see the 2024 construction area.

The City of Edmonton and EPCOR are working together to construct Low Impact Development (LID), which will help with stormwater retention and help mitigate flooding.
Please watch your mailbox for construction bulletins that will provide more information along with details on landscaping and access. For special concerns or access requirements, such as DATS, please contact the Construction Project Manager Ariel Couture at ariel.couture@edmonton.ca.
Construction in Boyle Street will begin in spring 2024 and is expected to take 2 years (planned completion fall 2025).
Local Improvement Options
A Local Improvement is a construction project undertaken near or adjacent to residents’ properties which is considered more beneficial to the property owner and local area than to the City as a whole. These include upgrades to street lights and sidewalks.
Residents in Boyle Street chose not to pursue decorative street lights, but had the opportunity to participate in the sidewalk Local Improvement decision.
Property owners were mailed a local improvement package dated January 25, 2024 which included information about the sidewalk reconstruction Local Improvement and a form for those who wished to petition against. The 30-day petition period has since expired. Since the City did not receive majority (50% +1) petitions against the Local Improvement, sidewalk reconstruction will take place in all project areas over 2 years of construction for the neighbourhood.
