A section of Shediac Road will be closed to all traffic all day Tuesday.

According to a release from the City of Moncton, the closure is due to planned maintenance to the railway crossing between Dove Lane and Baseline Road.

The closure is expected to run from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.

A detour will be in place. Motorists looking to access Shediac Road beyond the closure will need to divert to Highway 11, take the Shediac Bridge exit and backtrack to their destination on Shediac Road.
