EllisDon Infrastructure Healthcare has issued the attached public notice regarding deep foundation work that will be taking place for the South Niagara Hospital project. Contractors will be driving steel piles into the bedrock to provide the structural support needed for the building foundation. This work is expected to take approximately three months, beginning October 16, 2023 through to the end of January 2024.
The South Niagara Hospital will be located in Niagara Falls, at the corner of Montrose and Biggar roads. Although increased noise levels may be heard by neighbouring homes, businesses and those passing through the area, decibel levels will not require hearing protection outside of the property line. It is also not anticipated that vibrations will be felt outside of the property given the location of the work within the site.
Construction began earlier this summer on the 1.3-million-square-foot hospital, which is expected to take approximately five years to build. The City of Niagara Falls and the Niagara Region began stage one roadwork reconstruction in the area surrounding the hospital site earlier this spring, which is expected to continue until summer 2024.
