Busy QEW off-ramp in Mississauga to shut down for 32 hours on Sept. 9-10 weekend

A busy QEW off-ramp in Mississauga will be closed again for a significant portion of the Sept. 9-10 weekend as crews continue work on rehabilitation of the highway bridge over the Credit River.

Officials with the QEW/Credit River Improvement Project, who are overseeing the massive undertaking, say the QEW westbound off-ramp to Mississauga Rd. will be closed to traffic from 10 p.m. on Sept. 9 to 2 p.m. the following day and again on the Saturday night (Sept. 10) starting at 10 p.m. and lasting until 2 p.m. on the Sunday.

The same off-ramp was closed overnight last night (Aug. 31) to allow for similar construction.

Project leaders say traffic disruptions are anticipated while the Sept. 9-10 construction takes place on the bridge.

Closure date may change due to weather.

Notices of temporary lane and ramp closures on the QEW in Mississauga have been coming fast and furious in recent weeks.

QEW/Credit River Improvement Project officials have been putting out closure notices almost every other day. 

As work continues on the Credit River bridge project, drivers and area residents can expect ongoing traffic disruptions to impact part of the QEW and other areas in the vicinity of Mississauga Rd. and the highway in the coming weeks and months.

Night and weekend work along the 2.6-km stretch of the QEW from Hurontario St. to Mississauga Rd. is expected to impact traffic for the duration of construction.
