People travelling through the Highway 1/McKenzie Avenue interchange project will see a big change as the precast concrete box beams for the future Highway 1 underpass are lifted into place this weekend, July 20 and 21, 2019.

The second and final construction contract for the McKenzie interchange project is 50% complete, with current work focusing on building the overpass that will allow Highway 1 traffic to travel through the intersection without stopping.

Drivers are advised that the southbound left turn onto Carey Road, along Douglas Street/Highway 1, will be permanently closed as of June 10, 2018.

Beginning this weekend, drivers are advised that the northbound lanes on Highway 1 will begin to detour onto the newly constructed ramps for the future interchange.

Drivers are advised to watch for temporary shifts in the travelling lanes on Highway 1, as work continues on the McKenzie interchange over the long weekend.

Cyclists and pedestrians are advised of a temporary detour along the Galloping Goose Trail, between Grange Road and Belgrave Road, over the weekend of March 17–18, 2018, as part of ongoing work for the McKenzie interchange project.

Drivers are advised to watch for temporary lane markings and a lower speed limit on Highway 1, as part of the ongoing work for the McKenzie interchange project.

All travellers – including drivers, pedestrians and cyclists – are advised that McKenzie Avenue will be closed while construction crews pour the new concrete deck for the Galloping Goose Trail bridge as part of the McKenzie Interchange Project.
