Ah yes, the price of progress. Some work on utility lines will hamper traffic flow in downtown Victoria beginning today.

Beginning on Thursday, March 31, 2016, the City will close Victoria Street from Santa Rosa Street to Forrest Street, and will close Constitution Street from Vine Street to Craig Street to thru traffic in order to install utility lines.  This road closure is expected to take 2 days, weather permitting.

All businesses in the construction zone will remain open and accessible, and the public is encouraged to support businesses in the work zone.  Thru traffic can avoid delays in the work zone by seeking alternate routes.

For more information, contact the Public Works/Engineering Department at 485-3340.
