Portage Avenue Underpass Closure Revised

A planned closure of the Portage Avenue underpass has been extended.

The town of Fort Frances says the underpass will be closed beginning next Tuesday at 9:00 a.m., reopening Friday August 7th at 4:00 p.m.

Initial closure plans called for that section of Portage to be shutdown beginning Wednesday to replace the sanitary sewage line.

The underpass will be open to one lane of traffic this weekend.
