The Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure has announced that after consultation with local businesses and officials they have made the decision to revert back to weekday closures between 11am and 3pm, beginning Monday July 12. The 4pm to 5pm closure will be removed and replaced with a 5am to 7am morning closure.
These closures will allow for a needed working period for the Contractor while accommodating the daytime summer volumes and local needs.
Thank you to our MLA, the Honourable Josie Osborne and the Ministry of Transportation for their responsiveness to this item.
To summarize:
- July 5 – 11: single lane alternating traffic with no extended daytime closures.
- July 12 onward – weekdays only: 5am to 7 am; and 11am to 3pm closures with top of the hour traffic releases at all other times
- Weekends: no scheduled closures with single lane alternating traffic and top of the hour traffic releases
