The City of Weyburn is advising drivers of turning lane restrictions in effect this week, beginning on Monday, July 21. According to a release from the City of Weyburn, this is due to traffic signal work affecting the intersection of Fifth Street and First Avenue northeast.
The work was originally scheduled to begin last week but was postponed due to weather conditions.
Speed will be reduced to 30 kilometres an hour. Drivers are asked to use alternate routes whenever possible and to exercise caution when traveling through the area, obeying all posted traffic signage.
The restriction is expected to remain in place for the entirety of this week. The City thanks local drivers for their patience and cooperation while they perform this necessary upgrade.
A full closure of the intersection is scheduled for August, when the traffic signal installation will be completed. Updates will be provided by the city as they become available.
