NOTICE: Road Closure to begin June 16, 2021
Lake Road will be closed to all traffic at the Shipbuilders Creek culvert crossing which is located between
Shipbuilder’s Creek Road and Stoney Creek Run. This road closure and posted detour will begin June 16,
2021 at 9:00 a.m. and will be in effect for approximately 90 days. This closure is needed in order to
safely construct the replacement of the culvert crossing of Shipbuilder’s Creek along Lake Road. The
road will be open to local traffic only up to the culvert crossing, but the culvert will not be passable. A
detour will be posted for through traffic and will utilize Whiting Road, Klem Road and Bay Road (see back
of page for detour route map).

Project Description:
Construction work on Lake Rd. between Forest Lawn Dr. to Pellett Rd. is underway. The project includes
pavement rehabilitation shoulder widening and drainage improvements along the road. This is the first
year of this two year construction project. Next year, work will be on Lake Rd. between Bay Rd. and
Forest Lawn Dr. The Contractor for this project is Keeler Construction, and the Resident Engineer is Dan
Burgett from Ravi Engineering. We recognize that this project may be an inconvenience, but we ask for
your patience for the protection of our workers. Barring any unforeseen delays, we expect this year’s work
to be completed this Fall.
