For anyone heading east of Kitchener, this will be disappointing. Apparently due to a leak at a wastewater pumping station, the roundabout at Bridge & Lancaster, and therefore the bridge, is closed for the next week or two.

And the bridge on Glasgow (?) into Conestogo will be closing for four months in the coming days so route planning will be a bit tricky!

I forgot about the Glasgow St. Bridge closing. That really sucks.

I did see someone post on Twitter that they were able to cross as a pedestrian, so it may be possible to get through by bike as well.

Not knowing of the closure I went that way last night. It was easy to get through on a bike, especially if you’re coming down Lancaster to go over the bridge.

I read the repairs could take a few weeks. Definitely no cars can pass, but pedestrians can still cross the bridge and cyclists can too - last time I was there 2 days ago.

Somebody pushed the priority button… apparently the situation is fixed and as of 8:45pm Thursday night this announcement was made ..the roundabout is open again today!
