Court construction to cause congestion
Installation of windows at Fredericton Law Courts closing King Street for whole week
City hall let Frederictonians know Monday that it’s going to be a tricky time to make one’s way through the downtown core, as one block of a key street will be closed all week.
The City of Fredericton posted on social media that King Street between Carleton and Regent streets will be closed to traffic all week due to the ongoing construction of the new courthouse.
The reason: workers will be installing windows in the future site of the Fredericton Law Courts, it said.
There will be alternate routes to key facilities that people normally access from that block of King Street, the city said.
“Access to Barker House Lane will remain available via Regent Street,” the Facebook advisory stated.
“Access to the parking lot east of the NB Power Building will be available from Carleton Street.”
Motorists are advised to plan their routes through the area with those restrictions in mind, and they’re encouraged to be patient as the courthouse construction continues.
