A section of 20^th Street between Cumberland Road and Lambert Drive is closing for road construction and realignment work by Leighton Contracting. The road will reopen by October 18, weather permitting.   

The work will include new curb, sidewalk and asphalt paving on 20^th Street, as the road is realigned at the entrance to Cumberland Road. The new 20^th Street alignment will add a slight curve to the top end of 20^th Street to shift from the current angled entrance to Cumberland Road to a 90-degree entrance.  

Commuters will be detoured via Lambert Drive and Arden Road. Signage is in place around the work zone. Traffic control personnel are on site to assist all commuters, including cyclists and pedestrians.

The old pavement and curbing in the decommissioned area of 20^th Street will be replaced with soils and grass seed.
