Fallen rock has closed the westbound right lane of Maley Drive, approximately one kilometre west of the Barry Downe Road roundabout.
The lane will be closed until March 4.
The closure is required to provide adequate space for the removal of fallen rock, said the city in a news release. Newly blasted rock faces often experience falling rock, especially during freeze/thaw weather cycles, such as the one experienced over the last week. There is no rock on the roadway. The fallen rock is contained in the catchment area, which is built specifically for this type of event.
Drivers are asked to slow down through the construction zone and pay attention to posted signage.
