Sections of two Comox Valley Roads to be closed this summer

Sections of two Comox Valley roads will be closed as of Monday.

The Comox Valley Regional District has announced Strathcona Crescent and Corker Avenue at Back Road will be closed so crews can perform construction for the Sewer Conveyance Project.

The district says this change comes as they’ve been monitoring traffic speed and volumes along the Back Road corridor.

“Due to the volume of vehicle traffic using Strathcona Crescent, the closures are required as per the Traffic Management Plan,” said the district.

Because of the closure, the eastern end of Back Road past MacDonald Road will be a no-through road.

The closures come into effect June 9 and will run until this fall.
