Underpass closure reminder

Staff

The Portage Avenue underpass will be closed from 9 a.m.-noon tomorrow to do some last-minute work before winter comes.
During that time, Town of Fort Frances crews will be cleaning out the storm sewer catch basins and manholes while the Fort Frances Power Corp. will remove some abandoned electrical conduit from under the bridge deck.
As well, True Line Construction will be installing some spray foam insulation on the new piping to protect it from freezing.
Pedestrian traffic via the underpass will be maintained during the closure, as will access for emergency vehicles.
