A section of the Queensway is closed to traffic until Sunday morning.
Highway 417 is closed in both directions between Carling Avenue and Bronson Avenue from 6 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 19th until 11 a.m. on Sunday, Oct. 20th.
The closure will allow crews to install part of the new Harmer Avenue pedestrian overpass. The project is renewing the existing pedestrian and cyclist infrastructure over the Queensway.
According to the City of Ottawa, the eastbound on-ramps will be closed at Carling, Parkdale and Maitland avenues. Westbound on-ramps to the Queensway will be closed at Bronson, Rochester, Parkdale, Lyon and O’Connor Street.
The City is warning motorists to plan all trips well in advance as significant delays are expected during the closure.
