Section of Earl Armstrong Road to be closed for two weeks starting September 14

From Monday, September 14 to Tuesday, September 29, Earl Armstrong Road will be closed between Bowesville Road and Limebank Road for watermain infrastructure work.

The closure will allow for a land owner to install a new watermain connection to service the lands where the South-East Ottawa Recreation Complex will be built. The installation is proceeding this month to support overall project construction timelines.

Traffic delays are expected while work is underway. Please plan ahead and allow additional time to reach your destination.

A signed detour will be in place from Bowesville Road to Leitrim Road to Limebank Road.

Bus service will be detoured as needed to accommodate the work. While every effort will be made to minimize disruptions, customers may experience some delays. Access to Bowesville and Leitrim Park & Ride lots will remain open and clearly marked detour routes will be in place.

Signed detours will be in place to direct pedestrians and cyclists around the work zone.

We recognize this closure may affect your trip and cause delays. If you’re travelling through the impacted areas, please allow for extra time. Signs will be in place to help guide you along the detour routes.
