Construction Begins on Perimeter Highway between McGillivray Boulevard and Wilkes Avenue
Manitoba Transportation and Infrastructure reports resurfacing work on the Perimeter Highway northbound between McGillivray Boulevard and Wilkes Avenue, including resurfacing work on the interchange entrance and exit ramps to Wilkes Avenue, will begin July 16.
A single-lane closure, speed reduction and flagpeople will be in place. Motorists are reminded to adhere to construction signage and use caution when travelling in the area.
Motorists should consider using alternate routes, either Portage Avenue or Roblin Boulevard, to access Wilkes Avenue from the Perimeter Highway, as access to Wilkes Avenue will be limited.
Construction will take place from 6 p.m. to 5 a.m., but lane closures will remain in place during the day. The project is expected to be completed in August.
Manitoba Transportation and Infrastructure will update impacts to traffic through the Manitoba 511 information system at [www.manitoba511.ca](http://www.manitoba511.ca/).
