Background

Last spring, staff presented an update to Council on sewer and wastewater treatment plant projects to be funded through $7.5 million federal / provincial Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program (ICIP), and funding was confirmed in December 2025. Projects will replace sewer infrastructure damaged during the 2021 fire and improve capacity and infrastructure as Lytton rebuilds. 

The Village provides sewer services for properties in the Village of Lytton and Lytton First Nation’s IR 17 and IR 18.

Project overview

Starting this spring and continuing for 4 to 6 months, the West of Main Street Sewer Replacement Project will include the following:

  1. Sewer main replacement in the following areas:
  • Centre Lane from 1st Street to 6th Street, 6th Street to Main Street, and Main Street from 6th to 7th Street
  • West Lane from 1st Street to the Community Hub site on Fraser Street

2. Sewer connections in the following areas: 

  • On 1st Street from Main Street to Centre Lane
  • On 2nd Street from West Lane to Centre Lane
  • On 3rd Street from Main Street to Centre Lane
  • On 4th Street from Fraser Street to Centre Lane

3. Associated improvements for storm sewers and water mains

This project will move the Village’s main sewer line, which carries sewage from IR 18 and the north end of the Village, from West Lane to Centre Lane. It will also upgrade the watermain on West Lane and the storm sewer mains on Centre Lane and 6th Street.
