CN rail maintenance work
CN rail maintenance work on Loggers Lane and Cleveland Avenue track sections will result in detoured traffic November 12 and 18, 2015.
The District is working with CN to facilitate rail maintenance work on the tracks crossing Loggers Lane and Cleveland Avenue. The work involves federally-mandated track replacement, and was last done in 1997. Detours will be in place on both days to facilitate the movement of vehicles in and out of downtown, however delays should be expected depending on traffic volume.
