The City of Steinbach has provided an update on the Loewen Boulevard project and is informing residents of another upcoming closure. 

City Engineer Aaron Rach says the intersection of Loewen Boulevard and Hespeler Street was reopened Wednesday. 

“Northbound traffic will be able to turn left and proceed westbound on Loewen Boulevard, however, Loewen Boulevard between Hespeler Street and Old Tom Road will remain closed to all traffic as they complete the sewer installation there. As it was before, local access will be provided from the east to the residents in that area.” 

As of right now, Rach says they anticipate this closure to last until September 9th.  

The intersection of Loewen and Hespeler The intersection of Loewen and Hespeler is now open to northbound traffic.

Meanwhile, beginning next Tuesday, Rach says Park Road will be closed between the west entrance to E.G. Penner Building Centre and Industrial Road.  

“This is for the development of Park Road West to a four-lane divided roadway similar to how it is to the east and this is in conjunction with the residential development that is occurring on the north side of Park Road West. That closure is starting on September 6th and you can expect it to reopen at the end of November of this year.”
