Impact Level: Notification
Locations Affected: Barrie, Ontario, Canada
Tracking Id: RINTP3659267400
Description:
As per reports, the City of Barrie, ON, will conduct overnight snow removal operations in the downtown area, utilising rolling road closures on two consecutive nights starting on Sunday (07 December).
• The closure will last from 2200 hours Sunday (07 December), until 0700 hours Monday (08 December), and the subsequent night.
• The closures affect numerous streets, including major segments of Bayfield Street, Dunlop Street East/West, and Collier Street, downtown Barrie.
• Vehicles must be removed from metered parking in affected areas by 2000 hours on both Sunday and Monday nights.
Impact:
• The mandatory removal time for vehicles in metered parking, if violated, might result in ticketing and towing.
• Although scheduled overnight, the rolling road closures will have the ability to impede any essential late-night or early-morning deliveries.
• While the goal is to clear paths for vehicles, the nature of rolling road closures requires rerouting; hence, motorists may experience minor traffic disruption in the surrounding area.
Recommendations:
It is advised to follow the official website of the Barrie Police Service (https://www.barriepolice.ca/) for further information about the closure, and to use real-time navigation services for alternative route planning.
