Central Avenue Rebuild Update – July 9, 2026
The Municipality of Inverness County is advising that as part of the Central Avenue Rebuild project, the northbound lane of phase one (from Broad Cove Banks Road to James Street) will see pavement pulverized in preparation for digging. For pedestrian safety, the sidewalk will also be temporarily closed.
Originally construction was going to start between Broad Cove Banks Road to Shean Trail Crossing. However, due to equipment availability, the preparation work has adapted to include the remaining portion of the northbound lane of phase one (Shean Trail Crossing to James Street).
Once the northbound lane preparation work is complete, it is anticipated that the focus will return to the area between Broad Cove Banks Road and the Shean Trail Crossing.
The Municipality thanks residents for their cooperation and patience as construction kicks off.
