This is an update about Louis St Laurent and Thompson Road as well as LSL and 25.
We just received an email from the head of engineering at the Town of Milton regarding these intersections. LSL and 25 will be opening soon. This project is being completed by the Region of Halton and it needs to be opened in order to avoid any claims from contractors for delay.
It was the town of Miltons intention to have the traffic lights installed at LSL and Thompson Road in enough time for the opening but due to theft of the poles and the resulting delay in getting them ready, other measures to control traffic at that intersection have to be taken.
With the opening of LSL and 25, there will be an increased amount of traffic moving east / west along LSL and the Town will be installing TEMPORARILY a 4 way stop for approximately 2-4 weeks.
We understand this will be a “pain in the butt” for some, but necessary due to the increased amount of traffic along this route and Thompson Road. They will be doing what they can to expidite the installation of the traffic lights at LSL and Thompson as quickly as possible.
Of course councillors in the area will be using their website to update the situation and if you have any other questions, email mike@mikecluett.ca
We have asked that signage goes up as soon as possible to let people know of the upcoming 4 way stop intersection and the fact its temporary. When it does happen, PLEASE travel carefully through this intersection.
