Traffic Delays expected at Duffus and Barrington Streets

(Tuesday, August 22/06)-- Motorists are advised that, beginning tomorrow, the temporary detour at Barrington and Duffus Streets in Halifax will be removed, between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m.

During that period, there will be one- lane, stop-and-go traffic. After 4:00pm , two way traffic will be maintained.

The contractor is scheduled to continue the intersection improvements on the Duffus St side of Barrington St on Saturday (August 26), at which time traffic will again be reduced to one-lane, stop-and-go traffic.

HRM advises motorists to exercise extreme caution when travelling in the constriction zone, and if possible, to seek an alternate travel route until the project is completed.

HRM apologizes for any inconvenience.
