The Edgewater Project continues with work scheduled through to the end of 2025. For those curious, here's a quick look at the project timeline. Please keep in mind, with all major infrastructure projects, timelines can shift due to things like unforeseen underground issues; aligning subcontractor schedules; reliability of inventory, equipment, other service deliveries; delays obtaining permits; weather interruptions. The project team's priority is making sure the work is done right and built to last for decades. Thank you for your patience as we keep Edgewater moving forward!
