Motorists and pedestrians in Thunder Bay will have to contend with a two week road closure on High Street starting on Monday, May 15th.

The closure will affect the section of road between Queen Street and Oliver Road.

Street access will be allowed for local traffic only while detours will be posted near the closure.

This is to finish sidewalk and paving work that was unable to be completed last season.

Drivers are asked to exercise caution while travelling near or through construction areas.
