A concrete company has pleaded guilty to a safety violation and has been fined $20,000 by the Ontario Court of Justice, plus a mandatory 25 per cent victim fine surcharge.

Last year the company struck an underground gas pipeline in Toronto. It was found that the work was carried out without obtaining the required locates before digging, as required by law.

Safe excavation starts with obtaining locates for underground infrastructure. Contact Ontario Dig Authority whenever locates are needed.

Advancing Safety and Customer Satisfaction.

That was the key theme of TSSA’s 2026 Annual Public Meeting on September 17, 2026.

TSSA leaders joined stakeholders and members of the public to review our safety progress and priorities for the year ahead.

At the APM, we also highlighted how public safety continued to improve while customer satisfaction reached an all-time high — demonstrating that both can go hand in hand.
