Ottawa– Motorists and cyclists are advised that Mackenzie Avenue has been reduced to one lane, between St. Patrick Street to the York Street pedestrian crossing, to allow for construction on the Mackenzie Avenue bike tracks. The lane closure will remain in place until Friday evening.
Temporary lane reductions on Murray Street and St. Patrick Street will also be taking place during the construction as required, at which point Ottawa Police will be on-site to direct traffic.
Pedestrian access will be maintained during the construction.
