The next stage of the William Halton Parkway extension will see the Oakville road closed for the first half of May.
To service growth, address traffic demands and provide new travel options, Halton Region has been extending William Halton Parkway (Regional Road 40) to create a new east-west corridor from Bronte Road (Regional Road 25) to Ninth Line (Regional Road 13).
Beginning Wednesday, May 1, at 7 a.m. vehicle access will be restricted at Fourth Line, south of Burnhamthorpe Road West.
“This temporary closure is required to construct the south leg of the new roundabout at Fourth Line and Burnhamthorpe Road West,” said a regional spokesperson.
“Full access is expected to be reinstated on May 17 at 7 p.m.. Motorists should expect delays when travelling through the area.”
During this closure, there will be no through access south to Fourth Line from Burnhamthorpe Road West. Local and school access will be maintained along Fourth Line between the entrance to King’s Christian Collegiate and Settlers Road West.
