Traffic Advisory
The Belleville Police Service advise motorists to be prepared for potential slowdowns on all highways across the east region of Ontario. There will be an increase in commercial motor vehicle traffic across the region as a result of a demonstration running from Thursday through Saturday on Highway 401, Highway 417, Highway 17 and Highway 416. It is believed only one lane on Highway 401 through our area will be affected.
The Belleville Police Service objective is to maintain the safe flow of traffic in any areas within the Belleville city limits and, when delays occur, restore traffic flow in the safest manner possible. They also want to provide a safe and peaceful opportunity for demonstrators to exercise their lawful rights while minimizing the impact on the travelling public, where possible. Please be patient and exercise care.
