Road work closes westbound 3rd Avenue South lanes in Lethbridge this week

Two major arterial routes in Lethbridge are seeing construction activity this week, with drivers urged to plan ahead for delays.

Why it matters

Commuters in Lethbridge should plan alternate routes this week to avoid delays from ongoing arterial road construction.

The City of Lethbridge has confirmed road work is underway this week on two of the city's main arterial routes, which could affect commute times for drivers.

Westbound lanes of 3rd Avenue South will be closed for a portion of the week as crews carry out construction work in the area. The city has not specified the exact reopening date for the closed lanes.

A second arterial route is also seeing project work this week, according to the city, though further details on that closure were not immediately available.

Drivers travelling through the affected areas are advised to expect delays and consider alternate routes while the work continues.
