Repaving along Nanaimo Lakes Road set to start this fall

NEWS RELEASE - Distributed September 22, 2016 2:00 PM

Summary

Nanaimo Lakes Road, between Lincoln Road and Wakesiah Avenue, will be repaved this fall. Construction will begin September 28 and should be complete by the end of October. The road work will include the addition of paved shoulders for pedestrians and cyclists.

Link to Strategic Plan: Nanaimo Lakes Road has reached the end of its functional life and is being renewed as part of the City's Asset Management Plan. Adding paved shoulders to this section of road supports the Transportation Master Plan by providing a higher level of service to alternative modes of transportation, such as pedestrians and cyclists.

Key Points

Motorists are advised that there will be significant traffic disruptions and are encouraged to choose an alternate route.
Construction is anticipated to be completed by the end of October, however this time line is dependent on suitable paving weather.
