The Municipality of Thames Centre will be conducting its annual road re-paving and concrete repair work this summer. Our roads are nearing the end of their lifecycle and require this maintenance to ensure continued safety and functionality.

Impact on Residents
Road Access/Driveway Access and Parking
During the construction period, access will be maintained as much as possible. Access to your driveway may be limited if a section of the curb/ or sidewalk is being replaced in front of it. To give the new concrete a chance to properly cure, we request residents refrain from driving over the new sections of concrete for 3-5 days. While crews are on site, we kindly request you to avoid parking on the road during work hours (7 am–7 pm).
Noise and Dust
Please be aware that there will be some noise and dust associated with the construction activities. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding and patience as we work to complete these improvements efficiently.
Garbage and Recycling Collection
There will be no disruptions to Garbage & Recycling Collection. Please continue to follow your regular schedule.
