CN rail crossing work to result in full closure of 132nd Avenue, delays expected for a week

CN is slated to begin rail crossing upgrades at the 132nd Avenue crossing on March 4th, which will result in some delays in traffic.

Officials say the work requires lane reductions, alternating traffic patterns, and ultimately, a full road closure.

As a result, the entirety of 132nd Avenue, both east and westbound, will be closed on March 6th from 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. A detour is planned on 97th Street and 148th Avenue. Officials suggest the closure is necessary to accommodate CN’s overhead and crane work.

The project is expected to take just over one week. Travellers can expect traffic reductions and alternating traffic patterns from March 4th to the 12th; however, eastbound and westbound traffic can still pass through the site.
