temporary traffic signal installation continues at Yonge and Eagle

March 9, 2017

The installation of temporary traffic poles and signals between Sawmill Valley Drive and Davis Drive on Yonge Street, in Newmarket, has made great progress. Starting today, crews are installing temporary traffic signals at the Yonge and Eagle Street intersection.

work dates*: Thursday, March 9, for approximately one month
work hours*: 7:00am–7:00pm

what you need to know:

There will be temporary curb lane closures around the work areas as crews install the temporary traffic poles and signals.
Traffic control personnel and paid duty police officers will be on site as required.
Bus stops and sidewalks will remain open. If a bus stop or sidewalk is closed, directional signs will guide pedestrians to the nearest open bus stop or sidewalk.
At times, work at intersections will occur simultaneously.
There will be construction-related noise and dust from equipment and trucks.
Please give yourself enough time to get to your destination, and remember to reduce your speed through construction zones.
At a later date, the traffic lights will be out of service for a short time as crews switch over to the temporary signals. Notice of this temporary outage will be provided in advance.

Please Note: As with all construction projects, some work may be re-scheduled due to weather. We’ll provide advanced notice when possible.

We understand that construction can be disruptive and we thank you in advance for your patience during this time.
