Queens Road in Duncan Becomes One-Way Street
The first phase of construction on Duncan’s first major east-west cycling corridor has begun with an important change to the flow of traffic on Queens Road and Ypres Street.
The change involves a new one-way traffic configuration on Ypres Street from Coronation Avenue and along Queens Road westbound to Duncan Street. Eastbound traffic leaving downtown via Ingram Street will be routed south on Duncan Street to Coronation Avenue eastbound, and then up and over the hill towards the Trans-Canada Highway. All other traffic movements in the area remain unchanged.
“This traffic flow change is an important next step towards the active transportation improvements we are bringing to Duncan,” said Mayor Michelle Staples. “As our downtown continues to grow, we look forward to the completion of this project as we work to provide a safer, more accessible active transportation route to our community.”
Detour signs are in place and will later transition to permanent signage.
This project aligns with Duncan’s Transportation and Mobility Strategy and reflects the City’s commitment to providing safer, more accessible streets and sustainable transportation options for our community.
