Upcoming traffic disruptions in support of Windsor Street repaving and maintenance work
The Halifax Regional Municipality is advising residents of upcoming traffic delays on Windsor Street, between North and Almon streets to facilitate road maintenance and infrastructure work in this area. Work will begin in mid-June and is anticipated to be completed by late July.
Time: 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. for weekday work and 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. for weeknight work
Work details: This project includes coordinated road maintenance and infrastructure improvements designed to enhance safety, accessibility and long-term road conditions, including:
- Spot repairs to concrete curbs
- Adjustments to manholes and water valves in the street
- Milling (removing) the top layer of worn asphalt
- Repaving with new asphalt
- Repainting pavement markings and crosswalks
- Minor landscaping and driveway tie-ins
This work aligns with the Moving Better goals outlined in the 2026–2030 Strategic Plan.

- Weekday impacts: Two-way traffic will be maintained with an altered centreline in place. This is expected to be the standard daytime traffic impact during the project.
