Next week, crews will be shifting traffic on Davis Drive at the Patterson Street/Roxborough Road intersection. This is the last intersection along the Davis Drive rapidway to shift into its final configuration. Once the shift is complete, permanent changes to traffic movements will come into effect for drivers as of August 31. Please pay close attention to the signs in place at each intersection to navigate the changes safely.

Work date*: August 31
Work times*: 7am-7pm

What you need to know:

• Drivers will only be able to turn right into and out of driveways from Lundy’s Lane to 713 Davis.
• The temporary cut-through lanes at 665A Davis will be removed. U-turns are permitted at Patterson Street for both east and westbound traffic on Davis.
• Paid duty officers will be onsite to manage traffic flow.
• Please expect traffic delays and construction-related noise during this operation.

How to access businesses:

• Left-turns into 665A Davis and 713 Davis will no longer be possible. Drivers will only be able to make a right-out and a right-in from Davis. This is a permanent condition.
• Eastbound drivers wishing to enter 713 Davis will continue to Huron Heights/Alexander and make a U-turn on Davis when it is safe to do so.
• Drivers wishing to head eastbound when exiting 713 Davis, may do so by making a U-turn at Patterson/Roxborough.
• Eastbound traffic wishing to enter properties west of Patterson, on the north side of Davis, will need to make a U-turn at Patterson.
• Pedestrian access to businesses will be maintained. Please follow the posted signs to guide you to your destination.

Final traffic configuration on Davis:

• Drivers can only turn left at a traffic light when the left-turn arrow is illuminated.
• Unless signed otherwise, motorists will be able to make U-turns at signalized intersections from the dedicated left-turn lane. U-turns will be possible when the left-turn traffic signal is illuminated.
• Visit our vivaNext YouTube channel and watch the Rapidway Left Turns video to see how traffic on Davis will move in the final configuration.
