The Queensway is closed eastbound between Carling/Kirkwood and Metcalfe Street and westbound between Metcalfe/Catherine and Bronson Avenue until 6 a.m. Tuesday for construction.
Motorists are being warned to expect delays travelling around Ottawa this weekend as a section of Highway 417 remains closed for the long-delayed replacement of the Percy Street bridge.
As of 8 a.m. Saturday, the new two bridges were moved into place and construction crews continued work around the structures. This is the third and final weekend of partial closures on Highway 417 in Ottawa this year. The highway was closed July 13 to 17 for the replacement of the Bronson Avenue bridge, and the highway was partially closed July 28 to 31 to install a pedestrian bridge over the Queensway near Greenbank Road.
Here is a look at the detour route for Hwy. 417 westbound commuters during the highway closure Oct. 19 to 24. According to the city of Ottawa, the recommended eastbound detour says drivers continue eastbound on Carling Avenue to Bronson Avenue. The city says you should turn right on Bronson Avenue and then take the ramp to eastbound Riverside Drive, then drive eastbound on Riverside Drive to Highway 417. Drivers can re-enter the highway at the Hwy. 417 eastbound access ramp at Riverside.
