Update communicated: April 11, 2016
Closure dates: April 13, 2016 to April 29, 2016
Due to inclement weather last week, the closure
of the 3300 block of Dawnshire Avenue
between McAllister Drive and Northbrook Drive has been delayed until Wednesday, April 13 at 7 a.m. and will
reopen Friday, April 29 at 5
p.m. Motorists should detour using McAllister Drive, Fairview Drive and Beatties Ford Road. This road will be closed to all through traffic.
This closure is part of the Storm Water Maintenance contract.
Local access to residences will be maintained.
CATS will not be affected.
Weather and unforeseen circumstances occasionally prevent work from being completed as scheduled, and make it unsafe to reopen lanes or streets when planned. When this occurs, City traffic engineers work directly with other City staff and contractors to resolve the situation as quickly as possible and reduce impacts to the traveling public.
Pedestrians walking near work zone areas should be alert, cautious and allow extra traveling time. It is advised they cross at signalized intersections, use pedestrian walk signals where available and abide by detour signage.
Motorists traveling through work zone areas should be alert and extra cautious. Drivers should get in the correct lane well in advance and constantly be on the lookout for vehicles merging into adjacent travel lanes as they approach a work zone. Drivers should double their following distance.
