A stretch of Seventh Concession Road in north Pickering will be shut down for most of the day Wednesday while the City replaces a deteriorating cross-culvert pipe.
The closure runs from 865 Seventh Concession Road to Sideline 26, and will be in place from 8 a.m. until 2 p.m. on Wednesday, November 11, according to a City of Pickering service announcement.
The road work is a cross-culvert pipe replacement being carried out by the City's Roads Operations division within the City Infrastructure Department.
Access maintained for residents and emergency vehicles
While the road is closed, emergency services and residents of 860 and 865 Seventh Concession Road will still be able to reach their properties from Sideline 28.
Drivers who need to reach Sideline 26 north of Seventh Concession Road are being directed to approach from Eighth Concession Road.
Motorists who normally travel through the area should plan an alternate route for the duration of the closure, which is expected to last about six hours.
Where to get more information
The City has posted a service announcement and location map online for residents who want more detail on the closure boundaries.
