The City announced Monday that a section of Groat Road would be closed the following weekend, as work on the 102 Avenue Bridge over Groat Road continued.

Officials said Groat Road, between 107 Avenue and River Valley Road would be closed on March 5, and potentially again on March 6 – between 6 a.m. and 7 p.m.

The closures will take place to accommodate overhead work on the 102 Avenue Bridge, to prepare for concrete deck pouring.

In addition to Groat Road, the nearby multi-use trail will also be closed at the same time.

More details on the 102 Avenue Bridge Replacement Project are available online.

The City said the bridge is set to be completed by the fall of 2016.
