As the Town of Kentville prioritizes much needed repairs to our streets and sidewalks this season there will be a variety of jobs and activity happening over the coming weeks.  Consult this section of our website for updates as we move through the construction and repair season. 

DOWNTOWN SIDEWALK REPLACEMENT PROJECT

• Work to replace sidewalks in Kentville's downtown core started in the Spring of 2024 and continues with the next phase which began in April 2025. 
• Sidewalk replacement is scheduled for Aberdeen Street, Webster Street, and some work will also occur on Bridge Street. 
• Businesses in the work area of Aberdeen received hand delivered written notice from our contractors on Wednesday April 23rd.
• Work was started on the west side of Aberdeen street on Monday April 28th. Removal of the original sidewalk surface and the underground work has been completed. 
• Curb replacement on Aberdeen was completed on May 14th.
• Starting Tuesday May 20th prep work for replacement of a catch basin and the pedestrian landing on the North corner of Aberdeen and Main will begin.  Main Street will be reduced to one lane during this work. 
• We are asking people to please stay out of the work area.  
• After the work on Aberdeen street has been completed, contractors will move on to start the North side of Webster Street. 

ABERDEEN STREET CONSTRUCTION STARTED APRIL 28TH 2025

Updates will be added to this page weekly and as we have them available.  We understand there will be some disruption as we work through this considerable project in the business district.  We appreciate cooperation and patience from our downtown operators and visitors as we complete this important work to make our downtown more accessible, prettier, and better for everyone. 

Business operators and property owners with questions or concerns can also contact the Town as required.
