Ottawa– Motorists and cyclists should expect evening lane reductions on Holland Avenue, between Byron Avenue and Scott Street, beginning Monday, May 16. Lane reductions at Wellington Street and Holland Avenue intersection are to be expected. The reductions will allow for sewer rehabilitation work, which is expected to be completed by Thursday, May 19, weather permitting.
The work will take place between 5:30 p.m. and 7 a.m. to reduce impacts to the travelling public. On-street parking will be prohibited on the affected section of Holland Avenue while lane reductions are in effect.
Pedestrian access and access to adjacent dwellings and businesses will be maintained at all times throughout the construction period.
