Public Advisory: Lane Closure on Part of Pitts Memorial Drive

  • Transportation and Infrastructure

April 1, 2025

Beginning Wednesday, April 2, work resumes on the Cloverleaf Overpass where Pitts Memorial Drive (Route 2) travels over the Trans-Canada Highway. The westbound lane of Route 2 (from Pitts Memorial heading to Conception Bay South) will be reduced to one lane.

The lane closure is part of a bridge rehabilitation project necessary to facilitate repairs on the structure and are expected to be ongoing until October.

At this time there will be no impacts on the traffic travelling eastbound (Conception Bay South heading towards downtown) or travelling eastbound onto the Outer Ring Road. Planning is ongoing and there will be further notices of lane reductions as work progresses.

Motorists travelling on the highway are asked to slow their vehicles and please respect the traffic control measures in place. Motorists are also encouraged to seek alternate traffic routes while construction work is underway.

Information on active highway construction projects and repairs is also available by visiting nl511.ca and on the NL 511 mobile app.
