Contractors will be working in the Sandwick area in north Courtenay tomorrow, Friday July 7, drilling test holes for soil conditions. The work is part of the preparations for the future conversion of the former Sandwick Water Works District to the City of Courtenay water service.

They’ll be working in four locations: McQuillan Road, Western Road, Muir Road on the corner near Sandwick Park, and on the service road in front of Westview Ford off the North Island Highway.

There will likely be lane closures in each work zone for parts of the day. Traffic control personnel will be on site to assist all commuters. Please watch for crews and obey traffic control personnel. For more information, please contact Engineering Services at 250-334-4441 or email engineering@courtenay.ca
