Lane and road closures could cause backups on major highways in Mississauga, Brampton and Caledon

Drivers could see delays and traffic backups on roads across Mississauga and Brampton this week with multiple lane closures on major routes and highways.

Commuters may want to give themselves extra time getting around Peel this week with lane closures on Highway 401, the QEW and Highway 403.

Here are some of the major road closures that could cause a headache for drivers this week:

• All westbound lanes of Highway 401 express off-ramp at Highway 403 will be closed to traffic from July 2 to July 7. The closures will be in place from 10 p.m. on Tuesday until to 6 a.m. on Saturday.

• Construction on the eastbound Highway 403 in Mississauga will see alternating lanes between Highway 10 and Hurontario starting at 9 p.m. on Wednesday and lasting until around 5 a.m. on Tuesday, July 9.
• Recurring road work on Highway 401 will also see two alternating lanes on the westbound collector between Mavis Road and Winston Churchill Boulevard from 11 p.m. on Tuesday until 5 a.m. on Friday.
• Engineering work on Highway 410 in Brampton will have one northbound lane closed between Bovaird Drive and Valleywood Boulevard. The closure has been in place since mid June but is expected to wrap up on Friday, July 12.
