The Ministry of Public Works wishes to inform motorists that Coney Island Road to Railway Trail to pedestrian bridge, down ramp to North Shore Road and Fractious Street to BELCO substation will undergo trench work that will require a one-lane closure and trail closure.
The trench work will mostly affect Coney Island Road from bridge behind Baileys’ Bay Cricket Club to railway trail. Then down railway trail to Bailey’s Bay footbridge, down the ramp into North Shore Road eastbound lane traffic to Fractious Street. Trench work and closures will be in 200’ section lengths at a time.
This lane closure will commence Monday, November 2nd, 2020 to Wednesday March 31st, 2021. Working hours will be from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm, weekly Monday through Sunday.
The public is asked to avoid these lane closure sections and to use alternative routes via Ducks Puddle Drive & North Shore Road for the duration of this trench work. Due to the wide and long open trench works, sections of the railway trail and road will be completely closed for the 200’ sections.
Traffic controls will be under the direction of BELCO, Island Construction and Works & Engineering representatives, and will be managed through traffic control signals; and directional signs during rush hours.
