VIA Rail Canada and Canadian National will periodically perform overnight track and signal work along the railway right-of-way between William Street and the western end of Delhi Street during the period from November 1 to November 15, 2011.

On two occasions this work will require the closure of Perth Street at the rail crossing. The first closure (to perform track work) will take place from Friday, November 4 at 9:00 p.m. until Monday, November 7 at 8:00 a.m. The second closure (to test signal operation) will take place from Saturday, November 12 at 9:00 p.m. until Sunday, November 13 at 5:00 p.m.

During these closures, traffic will be diverted to William Street/Stewart Boulevard.

This project is linked with other work VIA is undertaking in its Ontario-Quebec Corridor with the overall result being improvements in train safety and better passenger rail service.
