Motorists should expect delays and are requested to find alternate routes.  HRM apologizes in advance for any inconvenience this delay may cause.

As well, residents, business owners and property owners are to be informed that blasting operations are required to complete rock
excavation at Washmill Lake Court extension, on the east side of Hwy 102 opposite Bayers Lake Business Park.  Rockwork Construction Ltd. has obtained a permit to carry out the blasting. Blasting will start on or about April 12/10 for approximately 6 weeks. Operations can take place Monday to Friday, from 8am to 6pm. No blasting will take place on weekends or statutory holidays.
