County Road 42 intersection closed Monday for roundabout construction
The County of Essex will be closing a section of County Road 42 on Monday for the construction of a new roundabout.
The closure will begin at 7:00 a.m. on Monday, June 2.
Construction is expected to take until late September, motorists are expected to plan their travel accordingly and follow detours that may be in place.
Westbound traffic along County Road 42 will need to use Patillo Road to County Road 22. No westbound traffic will be permitted through the intersection of County Road 42 and Manning.
Eastbound traffic along County Road 42 will be closed at Lesperance Road to local traffic only. Traffic will be permitted to head south on Manning Road only. The main detour for eastbound traffic will be Banwell Road to EC Row Expressway.
Manning Road will remain open to northbound and southbound traffic during this phase of the project with intermittent closures along Manning Road during the day.
Traffic signals at the intersection of County Road 42 and Manning Road will be shut off starting on June 2.
The project is part of a multi-year plan that hopes to increase road capacity, and improve connectivity. The plan includes widening County Road 42 to five lanes, as well as introducing new bike lanes, sidewalks, and trails.
