Major Watermain Work to Cause Traffic Disruption on Coleraine Dr. in Brampton This Week

Starting next week, drivers in Brampton should be aware of potential traffic delays and plan their routes accordingly, as a major roadway will be impacted by watermain work and improvements to the sanitary sewer system. The construction is set to begin on May 8th, and Peel Public Works has announced that some road closures will be necessary.

According to the Region, the affected area will be Coleraine Dr. from Countryside Dr. to Regional Rd. 50, and the southbound lane of Coleraine Dr. will be completely closed. Residents and business owners within the closure zone will only be able to access their properties from the northbound lane, as no through traffic will be allowed.

To ensure safety during construction hours, the northbound lane will be monitored by a flag person or Peel Police. The watermain work is estimated to continue until September, and the Region is advising drivers to plan for longer travel times due to the closure of this major north-south arterial road.

As such, motorists are encouraged to seek alternate routes, and the Region has stated that detour routes will be clearly marked with road signs. In light of the potential traffic slowdowns, it is crucial for drivers to stay informed and plan their routes accordingly, to ensure a safe and efficient journey.
