Much needed repairs to Rembrandt Park pathway via Merrimac approved

For a number of years now, users of Rembrandt Park have expressed concern to me about the walkway leading to the area from Merrimac Road.

The walkway will be repaired.

The Merrimac paver stones  at this walkway are in poor condition.  These sunken pavers are not only an eyesore, but they also typically represent a warning sign of a larger problem. An uneven paver can produce safety/trip hazards while sunken/missing pavers lead to  water“pooling” that will always collect puddles.

I wish to thank both our Public Works and Urban Planning Departments for moving forward with repairs At the March 13 council meeting we approved a bid for just over $50,000 to conduct the necessary work in May. The existing stone pavers will be removed and we will install asphalt, keeping the same walkway width and profile. There are four sumps along the walkway which will be checked and leveled with new asphalt.

Les pavés de Merrimac de cette allée sont en mauvais état. Ces pavés enfoncés ne sont pas seulement une nuisance visuelle, mais ils représentent également un signe avant-coureur d’un problème plus important. Un pavé inégal peut présenter des risques pour la sécurité ou les déplacements, tandis qu’un pavé enfoncé ou manquant entraîne une accumulation d’eau qui ne cessera jamais de former des flaques d’eau.

Lors de la réunion du conseil municipal du 13 mars, nous avons approuvé un appel d’offres d’un peu plus de 50 000 dollars pour effectuer les travaux nécessaires en mai. Les pavés de pierre existants seront enlevés et nous installerons de l’asphalte, en conservant la même largeur et le même profil d’allée. Il y a quatre puisards le long de l’allée qui seront vérifiés et nivelés avec le nouvel asphalte.

  1. Good plan, more actual road cleaning by Cote St Luc would be good for Chemin Merrimac also, no cleaning was done in the Fall, leaves piled up as did the mud etc after the work which was done on the street. I hope they will do a good clean-up of the street in the Spring.
