‘ALL LANES CLOSED': Expect partial, full closures of Niagara-bound QEW over Burlington Skyway this weekend
The Niagara-bound Burlington Skyway will not only have two lanes closed all weekend, but also two periods where it will be completely closed. The often-busy stretch of the QEW has been pegged for a series of partial closures for the Niagara-bound lanes this summer by the Ministry of Transportation, including this July 25-28 weekend. The closure of the two left lanes of the Niagara-bound QEW over the Burlington Skyway, according to the transportation ministry through its website, will take place starting from Friday, July 25 at 10 p.m. right through to its 'anticipated end time' of Monday, July 28 at 5 a.m. But for this weekend the ministry has also added a new twist — two periods where it will be 'all lanes closed' for the Niagara-bound QEW over the Burlington Skyway. The first complete closure of the Niagara-bound QEW is slated for Saturday, July 26 at 1 a.m. until an 'anticipated end time' of 3 a.m. The second complete closure is slated for Monday, July 28, at 1 a.m. until an 'anticipated end time' of 4 a.m. A ministry spokesperson could not be reached today to confirm the closures announced on their website, but Halton Regional Police said they received similar information. 'The most recent information we've received is that the Burlington Skyway will have two lane closures from 10 p.m. Friday until 5 a.m. on Monday, however there will be full closure of the QEW Fort Erie Bound at the Skyway from 1 to 3 a.m. Saturday morning and 1 to 4 a.m. Monday morning,' stated a Halton Police media relations officer in a July 24 email. Partial weekend lane closures have been regularly scheduled for the Niagara-bound QEW throughout this summer and three more are slated for August. The ministry also adds that 'more closures may be required after August.' It says, in its news release , to 'expect delays throughout the area when lanes are closed.' The ongoing weekend lane closures are 'for improvement work.' It noted that 'closures depend on weather and work schedules, and may be postponed or changed throughout the project.' Closures can be confirmed online at (as of late Thursday afternoon, the closures were still slated to happen). The City of Burlington had asked the ministry to release the tentative dates for the weekend closures to provide better notice. Read our story here. Error!
