The Town of New Tecumseth is investing in important road and sidewalk improvements in downtown Alliston to enhance road conditions, improve accessibility, and increase safety for residents, businesses, and visitors.
Fermar Paving Ltd., on behalf of the Town, will be completing road resurfacing and related infrastructure improvements on the following streets:
- Victoria Street – from Industrial Road to King Street North
- King Street – from Victoria Street West to Young Street
- Young Street – from King Street South to 208 Young Street
Project Timeline
Sidewalk and concrete rehabilitation work is expected to take place throughout the summer. Road resurfacing operations are anticipated to begin following the Alliston Potato Festival in August.
Project Scope
Work will include:
- Replacement of select damaged curbs, gutters, and sidewalks

Traffic, Pedestrian Access and Property Access
The Town and contractor will make every effort to minimize disruptions during construction.
Residents and visitors can expect:
- One lane of traffic to remain open during working hours
- Two lanes of traffic available outside of working hours whenever possible
- Safe pedestrian access maintained throughout construction
- Continued access to homes and businesses whenever feasible
- Temporary driveway access interruptions, with advance notice provided to affected property owners
