The $173 million project includes a median barrier wall replacement, drainage improvements, minor shoulder widening and overhead lighting replacement, according to the release.
Starting Monday, Aug. 4, there will be 'various off-peak lane restrictions to install temporary pavement,' reads the release. Once that's done, traffic in both directions will be shifted to the shoulders.
Starting Friday, Aug. 8, eastbound traffic between Hilliard Boulevard and Alger Road will be reduced from four to three lanes. There will be various other lane restrictions and ramp closures while work continues over the next three years.
'Simple, responsible driving behaviors, such as obeying the work zone speed limit, paying attention to work zone signage, maintaining a safe following distance and eliminating distractions, can go a long way in protecting not only motorists but also the men and women working to repair and maintain our roadways,' reads the release.

Donald Trump's key sector tariffs look firm, Mark Carney says, as trade talks could go past Friday's deadline

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney suggested Wednesday that U.S. tariffs on key sectors like autos, steel and aluminum will likely remain, since Donald Trump's White House views them as necessary for the national security of the United States. Two days before Trump's latest deadline to increase tariffs on Canadian goods , Carney told reporters on Parliament Hill that it is possible trade talks between his government and the U.S. administration will drag on past Friday. While Carney called the talks 'constructive' and 'complex,' he said there are certain sectors Trump views as 'strategic' for national security reasons. He named automobiles and steel — significant employers in Ontario — as well as aluminum, pharmaceuticals, lumber, and semiconductors. All those sectors in Canada are either already grappling with significant American tariffs imposed under Trump, or face the possibility of higher duties to export to the U.S. The U.S. also kept 50-per-cent tariffs on steel and aluminum in recent agreements on trade with the European Union and Japan, the same level imposed on the Canadian sectors earlier this year. Asked whether a deal is possible without tariffs on those sectors, Carney said that the United State's 'revealed approach' is to keep some level of import duties in those areas. 'In any broader deal, there are gives and takes, and there's various factors,' Carney said Wednesday. 'But I think we have to recognize that, in the strategic sectors — again, as defined by the United States: what's strategic to them — that they have tariffs.' The head of the Canadian Steel Producers Association, Catherine Cobden, told the Star this week that her sector will push for stronger Canadian counter-tariffs to match Trump's import duties on steel and aluminum if no deal is reached before Friday. Flavio Volpe, the president of the Automotive Parts Manufacturers' Association, said he wants tariffs on his sector reduced to zero, citing how the industry is highly integrated across the Canada-U.S. border. Meanwhile, in Washington Wednesday, cabinet minister Dominic LeBlanc was among the senior government officials who travelled to the U.S. capital in search of a deal before Friday. That's when Trump has threatened to increase tariffs on Canadian goods to 35 per cent, as part of his global policy to raise import duties to increase economic activity in the U.S. and promote sectors the White House deems essential to national security. Another example came Wednesday when Trump released a proclamation that made official his previous threat to impose 50 per cent tariffs on imported copper products. The proclamation said the tariffs will kick in just after midnight Friday morning. Trump has also threatened tariffs on pharmaceutical imports that could go as high as 200 per cent. Ahead of Friday's deadline, Canadian business groups and Ontario's envoy to Washington have said Canada must preserve the exemption to Trump's tariffs for goods that comply with 2018's Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA). That exemption, in place since March 7, means roughly 86 per cent of Canadian exports to the U.S. could continue to flow tariff-free, according to an estimate from RBC Economics . Error!
