Final asphalt paving scheduled for several streets in uptown Waterloo

Next week, sections of uptown Waterloo will be closed for the day as Grandlinq plans to complete final asphalt paving on several streets.

Crews will place the final layer of asphalt on Caroline Street, Allen Street and King Street from June 6 to June 10 in four separate 24 hour closures.

• More upcoming closures as construction for ION LRT nears completion
• Proposed LRT route in Cambridge a no-go for Preston residents

Crews plan on placing the asphalt during the day and striping the road at night. However, any rainy days in the forecast could delay this work as crews can't place asphalt in wet or humid weather.
