Construction will typically occur between 7 a.m. - 5:30 p.m. from Monday to Friday. Some exceptions may be required.
We anticipate construction will begin spring 2026 and the line will be in service before the end of 2027. Our crews will initially begin work on access roads and structure foundations in multiple locations. We anticipate structures will be built in a phased approach beginning at the south end in St. Thomas and moving north toward London. Hydro One will work directly with affected property owners prior to construction. Join our upcoming community open houses on April 16 for details.
Temporary access roads are required along the route, and we will work with property owners in advance. Access roads will be a combination of gravel with some wooden mats in a few sections.
Crews will review existing property maps and plans, complete locates, and if required, relocate drainage tiles before excavation. Crews may also use wooden mats and gravel access roads with a geotextile base layer to help mitigate soil compaction.
