Purpose
The Petrolia Watermain Upgrade project in Petrolia, Ontario addresses critical housing and infrastructure needs. This capital project involves replacing the existing 200mm watermain with a 300mm watermain on Petrolia Line from east of Bear Creek to Oil Heritage Road, then south down Oil Heritage Road. The new watermain will extend to the future development entrance on Oil Heritage Road, enabling the construction of five residential developments. The project includes removing and replacing approximately 2,025 metres of watermain, supporting the development of 1,032 new housing units. This will increase Petrolia's housing supply by 40%, including a mix of single and multi-residential units. The upgrade will reduce watermain breaks, benefitting 542 existing properties and future developments. Additionally, it will increase fire flow by 346%, improving emergency response times. The outcome will be enhanced housing availability, increased affordability, supporting the town's growth, and attracting new commercial and industrial developments.
