The renovations to the Guelph Police Service headquarters is going to take longer than expected.
A city report says that while the project is progressing and remains within budget, the completion date has now been pushed back to the end of 2019.
The original target was in the spring of 2019.
"The delay in construction progress is a result of a number of factors including: Weather: loss of time due to last winter’s weather conditions; Excavation work: the bedrock was more extensive than geological testing suggested and excavation work has taken longer than expected; Site complexity: renovating a working site is more complex than a new build or a renovation at an empty building as it requires coordinating multiple office space moves," says the city staff update on the project to council.
"Delays like these can lead to an increased overall delay due to the need to pause or reschedule work."
