Expect delays on QEW in Mississauga as lanes and ramps set to close
Published December 8, 2023 at 10:30 am
Several lanes and ramps on the QEW in Mississauga will shut down to traffic nightly this weekend and beyond as work continues on the highway bridge over the Credit River.
According to officials with the QEW/Credit River Improvement Project overseeing the major bridge rehabilitation work, three on-ramps and two off-ramps will be fully closed to traffic from this Sunday at midnight until 5 a.m. on Monday morning.
The impacted ramps are:
- QEW eastbound on-ramp from South Sheridan Way
- QEW eastbound off-ramp to Hurontario Street
- QEW westbound on-ramps from Hurontario Street (both northbound and southbound Hurontario Street access)
- QEW westbound off-ramp to Mississauga Road
Meanwhile, a pair of eastbound QEW lanes from Erin Mills Parkway to the Credit River Bridge and two westbound lanes between Hurontario Street and Erin Mills Parkway will be impacted by closures through Dec. 15, project leaders say.
The lane closures are in effect at various times between as early as 10 p.m. and as late as 8 a.m. each night/overnight, including weekends.
Temporary nighttime/overnight closures and other restrictions have been commonplace since 2022 both on the QEW and nearby roads due to the massive bridge project that began two years ago.
More traffic disruptions are anticipated as work continues in the coming weeks and months. Night and weekend work along the 2.6-km stretch of the QEW from Hurontario Street to Mississauga Road, and beyond, is expected to impact traffic for the duration of the project.
