Construction schedule update
January 15, 2025
Work is in final stages and expected to finish in late February depending on weather conditions
Major rehabilitation work on the Oxford Road 59 (Vansittart Avenue) bridge in Woodstock is in its final stages and expected to finish in late February 2025. Reconstruction work on the bridge was a significant undertaking over the past 11 months, requiring complete removal and replacement of the existing bridge deck, repairs to the structure, and a new wider deck to accommodate bike lanes and sidewalks.
Oxford County and its contractor, Sierra Construction, are working to complete the project as quickly as possible and thank residents for their cooperation and patience. Remaining work is weather and temperature dependent, however, and could be impacted by adverse conditions such as extreme cold. If temperatures remain consistently in the negative double digits, work may be paused until weather conditions allow for final construction work to take place.
Oxford County’s 2025 Capital Plan includes reconstruction work on Devonshire Avenue from Vansittart Avenue to Wellington Street, encompassing the intersection of Vansittart and Devonshire in early stages. More information about this project will be shared after the construction tender is awarded.
