The Department for Infrastructure says to keep disruption to a minimum the work on La Route du Fort will be carried out on three consecutive Sundays – August 21st, 28th and September 4th – from 08:00 until 20:00; and for two weeks – Monday to Friday – in the evenings from 7 until 11.

The Department says “La Route du Fort is a high priority for maintenance due to poor ride quality as a result of undulations, utility trenches and fatigue of the road surface.” The last time this section of road – from Green Street roundabout to Roseville Street – was resurfaced was in 1987.

Although the road will be closed to traffic – it’s being diverted via Havre des Pas or Don Road – pedestrian access will be maintained.

The work should be finished before the end of the school holidays.
