Hamilton headaches: Lincoln M. Alexander Parkway closed this weekend
Anyone travelling through Hamilton will need to avoid one of the most popular routes through the city.
The Lincoln M. Alexander Parkway, colloquially known simply as the LINC, is closed this weekend for annual general maintenance and asphalt repairs.
The eastbound lanes between Gold Links Road to the Upper Red Hill Valley Parkway off-ramp are closed from Friday at 8 a.m. until Monday at 5 a.m.
Meanwhile, the westbound lanes are closed from the Red Hill Valley Parkway to Mohawk Road from Friday at 10 a.m. to Monday at 5 a.m.
Detours are in place along Mohawk Road and Stone Church Road, but drivers should expect delays due to the heavy traffic volume.
The maintenance work includes spot resurfacing and asphalt repairs, milling and paving some sections of the road, graffiti removal, bridge and signage repairs, pavement markings, ditchings, catch basin cleaning and vegetation maintenance.
The work was originally supposed to take place from May 30 to June 2, but was rescheduled because of weather conditions.
