Back in April, ahead of the scheduled Dundas Infrastructure Renewal Project, Phase 1, the Old East Village BIA hired Kylie Castle in order to add additional support for businesses during construction. Although the endeavour commenced during the height of COVID-19 related restrictions, Kylie began working away remotely, connecting with businesses and OEV BIA staff via Zoom calls and over the phone.
Kylie comes to us with a background in Social Justice and Peace Studies from King’s as well as a freshly completed post-graduate certificate in Public Relations - Corporate Communications from Fanshawe College.
“I’m very excited to continue connecting with businesses in OEV to ensure their satisfaction with the supports available to them during construction,” Kylie said.
In addition to the existing supports developed by the BIA and the City of London through business feedback and consultation, Kylie’s role is focused on establishing another layer of communication and support for businesses at this time. In essence, Kylie will be a resource for all things construction while she builds relationships, offers insights, and develops additional components to the construction communications mix.
Kylie has jumped right in, starting projects and creating lines of communication that are new to the BIA. One of these include a bi-weekly OEV Newsletter (join the list right here), that’s delivered to your inbox every other Friday to complement the City of London’s Construction Newsletter (join the list right here). As well, check out our #DIGOEV Facebook Page, bookmark our website, and follow our Blog to get the latest news on all things OEV, just some items Kylie has been working actively to help build.
Moving forward, Kylie will become a well-known, friendly face along the Commercial Corridor as she works on-site with City Staff to ensure communication is clear to businesses and visitors through signage. In addition, as restrictions are lifted, Kylie will be making more in-person business visits to gather feedback, determine additional needs, and deliver communications materials such as the City of London’s Construction Contact Card, the Construction Toolkit, and information on Honk Mobile’s free parking promo.
Reach out any time to the OEV BIA by phone at 519-645-7662 or via email at info@oldeastvillage.com and for all construction-related matters. Get in touch with Kylie directly at kylie@oldeastvillage.com.

We’ll see you on the Corridor soon, OEV!
Great to see how Kylie Castle is improving communication during the Dundas Infrastructure Renewal Project. Clear updates really help local businesses stay informed and adapt during construction. For contractors and homeowners in the area, services like Bathroom remodeling services can also benefit from better coordination and timely project information overall.
Great initiative by the OEV BIA team in strengthening communication during construction. Clear updates like newsletters and on-site support make a real difference for local businesses. Much like a well-designed Island With Storage On Both Sides, having organized, accessible information from multiple sides helps everything run smoothly and keeps stakeholders informed and connected throughout the project.
Kylie’s role sounds incredibly valuable during a complex construction period. Clear communication and consistent business support can make a major difference for local communities facing ongoing infrastructure work. Projects like this also show how important organized planning and Safety Management Systems (SMS) Consulting Services can be in maintaining coordination, reducing confusion, and helping businesses stay informed throughout every stage of construction.
Great to see initiatives like this supporting local businesses during ongoing construction work. Clear communication and consistent updates make a real difference for communities adapting to change.

Great to see proactive communication supporting businesses during infrastructure renewal. Roles like Kylie’s really help keep communities connected and informed.
