Hespeler Road to Beaverdale Road

About the project

The Region of Waterloo is starting phase one of the Maple Grove Road improvements between Hespeler Road and Beaverdale Drive in Cambridge. This work includes:

• New asphalt multi-use paths on both sides of the street and bridge
• New roundabout at Hespeler Road and Maple Grove Road intersection
• Widening from two to four lanes
• Rehabilitating Ellis (Chilligo) Creek bridge
• Stormwater and drainage improvements
• Street lighting improvements

Timing — starts June 2025

Construction will be completed in stages starting with phase one in June until the fall. The road will reopen over winter 2025/2026.

Future work on Maple Grove Road will include multiple stages between Hespeler Road and Vondrau Drive. Phase two is expected to start in spring/summer 2026.

Closures and lane reductions

Two-way traffic on Hespeler Road and Maple Grove Road will be maintained at all times. Lanes will be reduced on Hespeler Road, Maple Grove Road, and Fisher Mills Road.

Fisher Mills Road will be closed from Hespeler Road to just west of the condo entrances (350/355 Fisher Mills Rd) from June 23 to August 29. 

There may be periods during construction when traffic will need to travel on a gravel surface, as well as times when traffic will need to be controlled with flag persons.

Please plan for some delays and travel carefully in the construction zone. We request that when travelling through and around the construction zone you follow and obey the construction traffic signage for your safety and for the safety of the workers.

Emergency Services (Police, Fire, and Paramedics) have been notified of the construction and closures to minimize any disruptions to services.
