The County of Prince Edward is rehabilitating Bloomfield Main Street from Corey Street to Wellington Street.
The municipality is providing the following project updates from the past week:
- On Friday May 15, The Water and Wastewater Department will be working to conduct an emergency water service repair on Bloomfield Main Street at Duncan Street in Bloomfield. The repairs will begin at 2:30 pm with an expected completion time of 9 pm.
- Concrete curb and sidewalk panel reinstatement continued.
- The contractor completed milling and removal of the existing asphalt surface.
- Fine grading of the road surface occurred. The contractor will continue to monitor the road to control dust and potholes throughout the long weekend.
- Significant traffic delays were experienced by motorists during the milling operations. The contractor minimized the size of the active work zone wherever possible to reduce impacts to the travelling public; however, due to the high volume of traffic, extended vehicle queue lengths and wait times were unavoidable.
The project remains on schedule with work slated to be completed by mid-June 2026.
The following work is scheduled to take place from May 19 – 22:
- Fine grading and concrete curb reinstatement to be completed.
- Concrete sidewalk panel reinstatement to continue.
- Roadway to be paved with base coarse asphalt.
- Base coarse asphalt paving is expected to take approximately 1–2 days to complete. During this time, vehicle queue lengths and wait times are expected to be significant and similar to those experienced during the milling operations last week. Once the exact paving schedule is confirmed, a public service announcement (PSA) will be issued advising motorists to avoid Bloomfield Main Street where possible, as substantial traffic delays are anticipated.
