Ever wonder what it would be like to peak behind-the-scenes of the Region’s hidden heroes who play an essential role in delivering public works? The Regional Municipality of York will celebrate National Public Works Week (May 20 to 26) to help facilitate your understanding of the importance of public works and how these services keep our communities connected.

York Region has planned the annual Family Fun Day and open house for residents and their families on Saturday, May 26, 2018. The 2018 National Public Works theme is ‘The Power of Public Works,’ and is recognized across North America.

• Providing safe and clean drinking water
• Maintaining and protecting York Region forests
• Road maintenance and infrastructure
• York Region Transit
• Operating facilities
