Enbridge Gas must relocate and construct a segment of its 20-inch high-pressure steel natural gas pipeline and related infrastructure in Toronto’s Port Lands in support of Waterfront Toronto’s Port Lands Flood Protection Enabling Infrastructure Project.

This pipeline is part of the Kipling Oshawa Loop (KOL) that provides natural gas service to downtown Toronto, including to customers such as hospitals and Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport that depend on reliable energy sources for daily operations.

Relocation and construction of the pipeline will be completed in two phases:

  • Phase I: construction of an above-ground temporary bypass of the pipeline on the sidewalk south of the new Lake Shore Bridge over the Don River at Lake Shore Boulevard East and Don Roadway (approx. 209 metres) was completed in November 2023.
  • Phase II: relocate the pipeline from its temporary location to its permanent location on the north side of the Keating Railway Bridge within a new utility corridor (approx. 166 metres). This work is scheduled to begin in early 2025.
