The City of Cornwall, Ontario, is closing a lane on Brookdale Avenue at the CN Rail overpass today, March 12, 2026, for maintenance work that will cause traffic delays. This work is necessary to allow crews to perform general repairs in the area throughout the day.
While the road will stay open to drivers, traffic is being reduced to a single lane with alternating flow at the overpass. Residents should expect slow-downs and plan for extra travel time when driving through this part of the community.
Municipal officials are asking everyone to slow down and follow the instructions provided by signs and flaggers on the scene. It is important for drivers to give workers plenty of space so they can finish the maintenance safely.
Motorists are encouraged to consider taking different routes during busy times to avoid potential traffic backups. The city expects normal traffic flow to return once the maintenance work is completed later today.
