Earlier this morning, Sept. 20, the Municipality became aware of infrastructure requiring repair on Central Avenue, Inverness near the corner hill.

The Central Avenue Rebuild project contractor, Brilun Construction, will be on site later this morning to make the necessary repairs. It will take some time for the contractor to mobilize the crew to site. In the interim, municipal staff are working to set up traffic control. Motorists and pedestrians are asked to avoid or use extra caution in the affected area where possible as we await crews and equipment. The Municipality thanks residents for their patience and cooperation and will share updates as more information becomes available.
