Beginning on Tuesday, October 15, Wellington Street will be closed overnight from Dufferin Avenue to York Street to facilitate surface paving as part of the Downtown Loop Phase 3 project until approximately Friday, October 18, weather permitting.
The overnight road closures are anticipated to be in place each night from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. the following morning.
Access to Dundas Place off Wellington Street is anticipated to be restored following paving in the area.
A temporary two-way traffic configuration will be in effect on both King Street and Queens Avenue in the Clarence Street and Wellington Street block as well as between Wellington Street and Waterloo Street to allow access to properties and businesses in the area for the duration of the overnight closures.
People travelling north and south on Wellington Street will be detoured around the closure.
Bike lanes along this section of Dundas Street will be temporarily closed and cyclists will be required to dismount and walk to cross through the Dundas Street and Wellington Street intersection. People biking are encouraged to follow signs to navigate safely through the construction zone.
Transit users are advised to visit the LTC website for service updates and detours.
Sidewalk closures and restrictions will be required, and people walking are encouraged to use nearby streets to avoid sidewalk restrictions on Wellington Street.
Access to businesses and properties will be maintained throughout this work.
