Traffic disruption on Queensway due to new water service being installed

A section of Queensway will be closed starting on Monday (May 12th) due to watermain utility work to be carried out.

The road closure will be between 15th Avenue and 17th Avenue with a mix of single lane and multiple lane closures, with detours in place down Ingledew Street to bypass the construction zone.

To accommodate the detour route, the Queensway and 17th Avenue intersection traffic signal will operate as a four-way stop.

The closure is anticipated to be in place until May 30th.

It is required for a BC Housing project at 1575 Queensway, which involves the installation of a new water service for a fire suppression system.
