Update — Tuesday, September 4, 2018: 10:03 p.m.: Construction has ended and buses have resumed regular service.
Starting Tuesday, July 4, the Region of Peel and the City of Brampton are closing:
- The Gore Road [Regional Road 8] between Queen Street East and Highway 50
during a regional project to:
- widen and rebuild the roadway from two lanes to four lanes;
- replace the bridge carrying The Gore Road across the Clarkway Tributary;
- realign the tributary;
- build retaining walls;
- build culverts; and
- add north- and southbound left-turn lanes.
Brampton Transit is detouring buses operating along this route, while the street is closed:
- 50 Gore Road.
The project continues until fall 2018. However, this phase of construction, requiring the Region and City to fully close The Gore Road and Brampton Transit to detour buses, continues “until winter 2017”, or until December 31.
