Starting today, construction will begin to move south across O’Connell drive with a phased approach.
The Deep Gulch Culvert replacement project is underway in Corner Brook and with it, comes traffic detours, delays and even closures. Starting today, construction will begin to move south across O’Connell drive with a phased approach. Mayor Jim Parsons says a temporary bypass will be in place to allow two way traffic. Speed Limits in the area will be reduced to 30km/hr. Parsons says phase two will start within a week or two. In Phase 2, O’Connell Drive will be closed from the intersection of Mt. Bernard / University Avenue to the Margaret Bowater Park parking entrances. This includes pedestrian traffic. Road users should seek alternate routes and Pedestrians may use either the Corner Brook Stream Trail, or Participark. Please note motorized vehicles and bicycles are not permitted on these trails.
Parsons says they’ll be paving at the same time and do most of the work on weekends. In Phase 3, O’Connell Drive will reopen to traffic and University Drive will close to through traffic from the intersection of Canada Games Place to the Mount Bernard / O’Connell Drive intersection.
