Road closures are popping up across the city.
Building construction has closed southbound Carlton Street between Graham Avenue and St. Mary Avenue. It will reopen at 10 p.m. Saturday.
The Manitoba Marathon will take place Sunday, meaning several roads will be closed. University Crescent between Chancellor Matheson Road and Pembina Highway will be closed, as will Chancellor Matheson Road between Research Road and University Crescent on Sunday from 2 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Westbound Midwinter Avenue between Levis Street and Henderson Highway will close Sunday at 8 a.m. for water main renewal work and will stay closed until Aug. 21 at 3 p.m. The northbound sidewalk will also be blocked off.
One planned closure is being rescheduled. Smith Street, between Ellice and Notre Dame avenues, was set to close Wednesday. It will remain open and a new closure period will be announced later.
Winnipeg Transit buses will be re-routed during the closures, and Winnipeggers can find real-time updates on lane closures online.
