Starting June 16 at 7 p.m., all southbound lanes will be closed until 6 a.m. for street construction and maintenance at the rail line crossing. Drivers are asked to use a detour from Sterling Lyon Parkway to Waverley Street.

The northbound lanes will be closed the next day from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. Drivers are asked to use the detour at McGillivray Boulevard to Waverley Street.

The work is expected to be finished June 18.
