Until further notice, a section Westside Road at Ewings Landing is open to single lane alternating traffic and is operating at a 50 per cent load restriction for commercial vehicle traffic.

May 2 story:

A section of Westside Road closed in the  Ewing’s Landing area north of Fintry has reopened to single lane alternating traffic.

A 50 per cent load restriction remains in place for commercial vehicles.

The road was closed last night for a geo-technical assessment of the slope after a washout yesterday took out part of the road.

The Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure has determined the slope is stable enough to allow limited traffic through.

Two properties at Ewings Landing below Westside Road remain under Evacuation Order

No residents have been displaced by the order.

An evaluation and assessment of the slope stability above the two properties continues and when it is safe, the order will be rescinded.
