Over the next couple of months, the streets listed below will be repaved, causing some delays and road closures.

Motorists in the Queen City are advised to use alternate routes and expect delays, detours and minor interruptions.

The exact date, time and sequence of work are unknown, and timing is subject to change as a result of inclement weather conditions and operational delays. Motorists are also encouraged to allow extra travel time for these routes and to be mindful of city workers.
