A heads up if you travel along St. Paul Street in St. Catharines.
Crews have begun the second phase of the St. Paul Street / Carlisle Street road reconstruction project and travel will be restricted on St. Paul between James Street and Carlisle Street and on Carlisle Street between St. Paul Street and Race Street.
Work includes the replacement of concrete curbs and gutters, sidewalks, street lighting, streetscaping elements, traffic signals, asphalt replacement and line painting.
To protect construction workers and to complete the work safely and cost effectively, St. Paul Street will be closed to vehicular traffic for the majority of the road work portion of the project.
Temporary lane closures will then be in place to facilitate the remaining work between the curbs and building faces.
Pedestrian access will be maintained but the public is requested to use care when walking through the construction zone.
