Please be advised that starting next week, November 6th, there will be a planned, long term closure of the road and sidewalk in the attached map, with access for local traffic only. Access to Maverick Mart will be on 11th Avenue. The restriction to local traffic in the area between Frederick and Applewhaite is to acknowledge the limited turnaround space available for larger vehicles. No pedestrian access is permitted due to safety concerns, and so pedestrians who use this thoroughfare are asked to consider alternative routes via Prince Rupert Blvd and Portage Road.
This closure is anticipated to last until summer of 2025 and is to enable the replacement of the critical water main that runs beneath the roadway and realignment of major utilities that are also in the area. For additional information on the overall BIG project to replace water and sewer infrastructure which this is connected to, go to engage.princerupert.ca/BIG
We appreciate the community's patience while these critical repairs are conducted.
