Huronia Road closure required for culvert replacement and sanitary sewer installation

Barrie, ON – Contractors will be implementing a full closure of Huronia Road between Lockhart Road to McKay Road from Monday, June 1 to Wednesday, September 30, 2026. The closure is required to complete two culvert installations and deep sanitary sewer work along Huronia Road.

Access to businesses and residents within the closure will be maintained at all times. Through traffic will not be permitted during the closure. Access for emergency services will be maintained throughout the construction period. McKay Road East, from Veterans Drive to Huronia Road, will also remain closed to through traffic, with local access only from Veterans Drive, until the end of 2026.

Detour routes will be in place during the closure. Motorists are encouraged to plan ahead and follow posted signage. 

This work is part of the City of Barrie’s Multi‑Modal Active Transportation Master Plan, which identifies Huronia Road as a key corridor needed to support growth to 2031.
