Roads in city core remain closed this week

If you’re planning a trip into the city for anything this week, remember road closures are  still in place for the downtown core.

The massive sinkhole on Rideau Street has been paved over, but Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson has decided not to open the road to traffic just yet. Bus routes would only be open for two days and they would have to close again due to the meeting of the North American leaders on Wednesday, and Canada Day on Friday. So the traffic detours remain, likely until next week.

Sussex and Elgin have re-opened; Rideau is expected to be open on Saturday.

Certain roads, waterways and air space are being closed as extra security measures area put in place for the North American leaders summit Wednesday.
