Huronia Road south of Big Bay Point will experience a partial shutdown starting June 15, 2026, as announced by local authorities. The closure is necessary for ongoing road work and is expected to cause delays for commuters in the area.
Details of the Closure
The partial shutdown affects the southbound lanes of Huronia Road between Big Bay Point Road and a point south of the intersection. Construction crews will be working on road repairs and upgrades, with the closure expected to last for several days. Drivers are advised to seek alternate routes to avoid congestion.
Impact on Traffic
Local traffic will be impacted, especially during peak hours. The city has urged residents to plan their journeys accordingly and consider using public transit or carpooling to reduce delays. Signs and detours will be in place to guide drivers around the construction zone.
Background

Similar upgrades have been carried out on other sections of Huronia Road in recent months. The project is funded by the municipal government and is expected to be completed by the end of the summer.
Alternate Routes
Recommended alternate routes include using Yonge Street or Highway 400 to bypass the closure. Local businesses in the area have been notified and will remain accessible via side streets. The city apologizes for any inconvenience and thanks residents for their patience.
