Latest lane closures on QEW in Mississauga will impact traffic for next six weeks
Published October 4, 2023 at 3:03 pm
Four lanes on the QEW in Mississauga will shut down to traffic each night/overnight for the next six weeks as work continues on the highway bridge over the Credit River.
According to the latest update from officials with the QEW/Credit River Improvement Project overseeing the major bridge rehabilitation work, a pair of eastbound 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 the closures.
The closures will take place at various times until Nov. 15, including on weekends, between 10 p.m. and 8 a.m. the following mornings, according to officials.
However, there will be no nighttime closures this coming Friday through Monday (Oct. 6-9) when people are travelling for and celebrating Thanksgiving, officials say.
Temporary nighttime/overnight closures and other restrictions have been commonplace since 2022 both on the QEW and nearby roads due to the massive project that began two years ago.
More traffic disruptions are anticipated as work continues in the coming 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.
