Road repaving work begins today on Ridge Rd between 8th Rd East and Hamilton/Grimsby boundary

Hamilton, ON - June 23, 2016 - The City of Hamilton begins road repaving work today on a 3.2 km segment of Ridge Rd. between 8th Road E. and the Hamilton/Grimsby boundary.

Lengthy lane restrictions will be in effect during this work and motorists should expect delays. In an effort to accommodate the work and minimize daily through-traffic in the area, this section of Ridge Rd. has been signed as ‘closed’ with local traffic access only. The designated detour route is Green Mountain Rd. between 8th Rd. E. and 11th Rd. E. / Smith Road.

The work is expected to be completed by the end of August. The Public Works department thanks residents for their patience during this time as it works to improve road surfaces.
