Construction crews will begin installing deck panels for a new six-lane bridge as part of the Northeast Anthony Henday Ring Road project. Lane closures will take place in stages to ensure continuous traffic flow for motorists.

Baseline Road interchange

Dates: November 7 to November 14, weather permitting

As crews work on the new six-lane Baseline Road bridge over Henday Drive, traffic accommodation near the work site will take place in three stages over the week:

Southbound Anthony Henday Drive is restricted to one lane, between the hours of 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., for approximately two days.
Anthony Henday Drive is down to one lane in each direction, between the hours of 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. for approximately two days.
Northbound Anthony Henday is limited to one lane, between the hours of 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. for approximately two to three days.
