People travelling through the area may need to take a detour. Residents on the street should still be able to get local access, and emergency access is to be maintained, according to the City.

The City says drivers and pedestrians should follow signage and detour instructions at the work site. It has not posted a completion time or said whether the work could extend beyond Saturday.

This is a scheduled operational closure, not confirmation that the culvert and road-repair work has been completed. The City lists Briana Shaimaiyuk-Baines, Public Works Clerk, as the contact for more information at 867-979-5630.
