TRAFFIC ADVISORY
REHABILITATION WORK ALONG THE RIDEAU CANAL RECREATIONAL PATHWAY
Canada’s Capital Region — The National Capital Commission (NCC), in collaboration with Parks Canada, wishes to advise the public of rehabilitation work along the Rideau Canal recreational pathway, on the Colonel By Drive side, west of Bank Street Bridge. This work will begin Monday, March 8, and run until end of April 2010.
This work will not affect motor vehicle traffic.
The recreational pathway located along this portion of the Canal will be closed to pathway users over a length of approximately 150 metres. Signage will be put in place along the pathway to notify users of the pathway closure along this portion of the Canal.
Work includes repairs to the Canal walls, pathway reconstruction, as well as replacement of railings and lampposts.
The NCC asks that pathway users exercise caution, obey the signs and use alternate routes, such as the Queen Elizabeth Driveway recreational pathway, during the work period.
For more information, the public may contact the NCC at 613-239-5000, 1-800-465-1867, 613-239-5090 (TTY) or 1-866-661-3530 (toll-free TTY) or visit the NCC’s website at www.canadascapital.gc.ca.
