Wellington Road 34, Concession 7 to Wellington Road 54 (MTO Project)


Anticipated Project Timing: August 12, 2024 until Summer 2025

Type of Work:
HWY 6 Mid-Block Interchange Works

Description of Work:
This is an Ontario Ministry of Transportation lead project. The MTO is undertaking improvements to Highway 6 (Hanlon Expressway). As a result, Wellington Road 34 will be closed August 12 2024 until Summer 2025 from Concession 7 to Wellington Road 54 to construct a new Wellington Road 34 bridge over Highway 6 (Hanlon Expressway). During the bridge construction and Wellington Road 34 closure, traffic will be required to use the newly constructed Hanlon Expressway Mid-Block Interchange overpass (Wellington Road 54). More information on this MTO project can be found on the project website.

Wellington Road 109, Structure Replacements


Anticipated Project Timing: May 5, 2025 through to 2028

Type of Work:
Structure Replacements

Description of Work:
The County of Wellington has hired a contractor to complete capital construction works on Wellington Road 109, east of Highway 6 in the Township of Wellington North. This long-term infrastructure project includes the replacement of four structures and road resurfacing between them, with construction expected to continue through 2028. The project will commence with work on Bridge 10 and Culvert 5. Once these are underway, work will follow on Bridge 4 and Bridge 6.

Traffic Impact:
• Wellington Road 109 will remain open throughout the construction period.
• One lane of traffic will be maintained at all times.
• Lane width will be restricted to 3.5m (11 feet) and oversized equipment will need to use an alternate route. There is no load/weight restriction through the project limits.
• Traffic delays are anticipated, and we encourage the travelling public to consider using the suggested alternate route (see attached map) to avoid congestion and improve travel time.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to improve this important section of road infrastructure.
