Closure of Consecon Street Wellington at Millennium Trail planned for Sept. 21-23 /Oct. 5-6

The intersection of Consecon Street and the Millennium Trail in Wellington is to be closed to all traffic Monday, Sept. 21 at 7 a.m. until Wednesday, Sept. 23 at 7 p.m. and Monday, Oct. 5 at 7 a.m. until Tuesday, Oct. 6 at 7 p.m.

The closure in September is required so that the County’s contractor can install the watermain (an underground water pipe) and forcemain (a pressurized sewer pipe) across Consecon Street. During the second closure in October, crews will work to make the final water service connections.

No traffic will be able to pass through the intersection during the closure. The closure will remain in effect continuously, including overnight.

Detour signage will be in place instructing drivers to use Belleville Street/County Road 2, Swamp College Road, Baitleys Road, and Consecon Street.

This work is the final connection of the Wellington trunk watermain and sanitary sewer project.

The new trunk watermain is to help meet water distribution and storage needs of the existing residents and future development within the Wellington urban serviced area. The new sewer trunks will accommodate the anticipated increase in wastewater flows from new developments.
