The ramp leading from Robert E. Howlett Memorial Drive (Route 3) to the eastbound Pitts Memorial Drive (Route 2) towards downtown St. John’s will be closed beginning today, (Wednesday, September 21).

The closure is necessary for a culvert replacement and for the safety of motorists and crews working in the area.

Motorists will be required to use alternate routes and should plan for some traffic delays.

The Department of Transportation and Infrastructure anticipates this work being completed later this week.

Details on highway construction projects are available on www.nl511.ca and the NL 511 smartphone app.
