North Bay, ON – Oct. 23, 2020 – The City of North Bay is advising travellers to expect lengthy traffic delays next week at the Highway 11/17 and Seymour Street intersection.
Both the northbound and southbound lanes of Highway 11/17 will be closed for short durations between Monday, Oct. 26 and Thursday, Oct. 29, while Teranorth Construction & Engineering Limited paves sections of the intersection. The work will take place between the hours of 9 a.m. and 3 p.m.
Travellers should add extra time to their schedule when using this intersection or take an alternate route as follows:
- vehicles travelling northbound on King’s Highway No. 17 detour onto Highway 94 towards Callander, then north to Lakeshore Drive to access the City’s road network to get to their destination; or
- vehicles travelling northbound on King’s Highway No. 17 stay on the inside lane and travel south on King’s Highway No. 11 to the Lakeshore Drive off ramp in order to access the City’s road network to get to their destination;
- vehicles travelling northbound on King’s Highway No. 11 should take the off ramp at Lakeshore Drive in order to use the City’s road network, get to their destination
The reconstruction of the Highway 11/17 and Seymour Street intersection is nearly complete and Teranorth Construction & Engineering Limited is preparing to wind down the project for this construction season. Final milling and paving is slated for completion in the spring of 2021.
The City of North Bay and MTO are aware of and appreciate the need to maintain traffic through the Hwy 11/17 and Seymour Street corridors but the necessary work must be completed responsibly and safely at all times.
