Geraldton Main Street Rehabilitation Project
The Municipality of Greenstone is pleased to announce the start of the Geraldton Main Street Rehabilitation Project in the Geraldton Ward.
This important infrastructure project will include improvements to sections of Main Street and will involve roadway reconstruction, underground infrastructure upgrades, drainage improvements, sidewalk and curb work, and surface restoration. The project is intended to improve the long-term condition, safety, and functionality of the downtown corridor for residents, businesses, and visitors.
Construction activities will begin shortly and will continue throughout the construction season. During this time, residents and motorists can expect temporary traffic disruptions, lane restrictions, reduced parking availability, and periodic road closures within the project area.
Beginning the week of May 25th the contractor will be approaching affected residents and occupants regarding the connection of a Temporary Water System that will need to be installed in preparation of the upcoming construction.
The Municipality is committed to keeping the public informed throughout the duration of the project.

May 26, 2026 UPDATE
Contractors are preparing to begin work on the Geraldton Main Street Rehabilitation Project.
The work zone currently covers the area from south of the Municipal Administration Building through to Benner Avenue, with the initial phase of construction focusing on the section from Edith Avenue northward to Queen Avenue.
Construction activities will progress northward in approximately 200–300 metre sections to help minimize disruptions to residents, businesses, and traffic.
Over the next 7–10 days, residents can expect to see:
- Installation of project signage and traffic control measures
- Installation and commissioning of the temporary water system that will provide potable water service to affected properties during construction
- Installation of a dewatering system used to lower the water table during underground infrastructure work such as piping installation
The dewatering system will be installed in a manner that minimizes impacts to both vehicular and pedestrian traffic.
Equipment and construction materials will continue arriving in Geraldton over the coming weeks, with construction expected to continue throughout the summer and into late fall.
Residents directly affected by temporary service interruptions or alternate water hookups will be contacted directly by the contractor in advance.
The Municipality thanks residents and businesses for their patience and cooperation as these important infrastructure improvements move forward.
