10th Line closure

In order to do repair the 10th Line bridge the road is temporarily closing.

There will be no through traffic on the 10th Line, between Sideroad 10 and Sideroad 15, from July 15 to Dec. 1. Local traffic is allowed past the barricades, and the contractor is ensuring garbage pick-up won't be interrupted during the closure.
