Road closures in Coquitlam due to Evergreen Line repairs

A heads up to drivers this weekend and commuters on Monday morning that there will be some road closures in Coquitlam to fix the Evergreen Line.

Como Lake Avenue between Clarke Road and Elmwood Street will be closed periodically to allow crews to reposition a guideway that shifted off its supports last month.

The area will be closed from time to time on Saturday and Sunday 8 a.m. to midnight, and Monday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

When the closure is in effect, drivers travelling westbound on Como Lake will be detoured left on to Clarke Road and then Smith Avenue. Drivers will then be directed north on North Road to continue travelling westbound on Como Lake. Drivers travelling eastbound on Como Lake will be detoured right on to North Road and then Smith Avenue. Drivers will then be directed onto Clarke Road northbound to continue travelling eastbound on Como Lake Avenue.
