Section of Team Gushue Highway temporarily closing

Are you curious about what the Team Gushue highway will look like in 2018? Well Telegram photographer Keith Gosse was, so he took a drone to the area to give everyone an aerial look at the section between Kenmount Road and Topsail Road that is slated to open this coming summer.

The Department of Transportation and Works is advising that a section of the Team Gushue Highway from Kelsey Drive to Kenmount Road will be closed for the next several weeks due to construction in the area, beginning tomorrow, July 27.

“The closure is necessary to facilitate the construction of the highway near Kenmount Road to the new section of the highway that extends to Topsail Road,” the release states.

 “The closure also ensures the safety of workers and motorists and allows the work to be completed as quickly as possible. Motorists are asked to obey signs.”

Motorists who are travelling between the Outer Ring Road and Kenmount Road are advised to use Goldstone Street or Kelsey Drive.

Meanwhile, the work on the ramp from Team Gushue Highway to Kenmount Road heading west is progressing and it is expected to reopen in early August.
