Lane restrictions are now in place on a busy stretch of downtown Burlington street.

Due to the reconstruction of Guelph Line, lanes will be reduced from Lakeshore Road to New Street starting today (june 4) and lasting until the end of August.

The work being done on Guelph Line includes fixing sidewalks and curbs, replacing roadway asphalt, upgrading street lights and the installation of pedestrian traffic signals.

Residents who live in the area have been told that vehicle access to their property may be difficult at times. Some trees will be removed to accommodate the work.

“When your driveway is inaccessible or closed, please park on a neighbouring street, or where no construction is taking place and parking
is permitted,” a message sent to residents from the City of Burlington reads.

The entire project is expected to last until the fall,
