Erickson Road renewal project on the way

The City of Campbell River is preparing a major upgrade to water and stormwater services on Erickson Road after opening the project for tender.

A news release from the city said the move marks a key step in the renewal project, which will replace infrastructure that has reached the end of its service life.

“This is an important project for everyone who relies on this key water service and means improved reliability moving forward,” said Grant Parker, director of operations. “We look forward to working with a contracting team that can deliver this effectively.”

Work will take place between the Larwood Creek crossing and west of Nature Park Drive. Commuters and residents can expect single-lane alternating traffic while construction is underway.

The city said construction is expected to begin in spring 2026 and last nine to 12 months.

Contractors interested in the project can now submit bids through the city’s bid opportunities website.
