Getting around some Parks Canada locations on P.E.I. will be more challenging over the next few weeks.

The following locations will be affected:

  • Green Gables.
  • Cavendish main beach.
  • Graham's Lane.
  • Gulf Shore Parkway between Brackley and Dalvay.
  • Port-la-Joye – Fort Amherst Access Road and parking areas.
  • MacMillian Lane.
  • Bayshore.

Construction is also underway on the Covehead Bridge, and it will remain one lane only until mid-July. There is a timed traffic light in place.

Parks Canada officials say every effort will be made to ensure minimal disruption to visitors and local residents, but warn there may be short-term traffic delays.
