 During the detour period the Village will:

  • monitor the intersections, and will request signal timing adjustments, if needed, to minimize traffic backups;
  • provide special Police patrols on local streets to reduce speeding and cut through traffic; and,
  • ensure emergency responses routes are maintained to all part of the community for police, fire and ambulance access.
