🚦A quick traffic update for next week!

Work continues on the Downtown Reimagined project, with crews heading to Elm Street between Gibson and Mountain from July 13-17.

During the day, you’ll see construction activity in the area, but Elm Street will remain open with alternating two-way traffic managed by our on-site team. Main Street West will also stay open, with some temporary lane adjustments in place.

🚗 You may experience a short wait while equipment is moving, but no detours are required.

If you’re travelling through downtown, please:
✅ Slow down and watch out for crew members
✅ Follow posted signs and traffic directions
✅ Give yourself a few extra minutes to get to where you’re going

We know construction brings changes to your daily routine, and we truly appreciate your patience and support as we continue building a better downtown for everyone.
