LANTZVILLE — A large chunk of well-travelled Lantzville Rd. will be closed for the next few weeks.

The District of Lantzville states effective Thursday, Sept. 10 and estimated to last until Thursday, Oct. 1, the Bloods Creek culvert will be replaced at 7098 Lantzville Rd.

As a result, a detour will be in place 24 hours a day via Dickinson Rd., while Lantzville Rd. south of the village core is shut down.

“No one passes through the work area, including residents. You can reach your property, but only from your own side of the closure,” stated a service notice from the district.

The Bloods Creek culvert replacement project follows similar work carried out in August of last year on Dickinson Rd.

Crews are preparing to close a large section of Lantzville Rd. down for a culvert replacement south of the village core.
