The City of Guelph says Macdonell and Wyndham streets in the downtown core will be closed on the night of March 17 for St. Patrick’s Day celebrations.
It’s similar to the road closures seen in downtown Guelph in September as part of the city’s yearly Safe Semester campaign when University of Guelph students returning to class flock to local watering holes on weekends.
“The closure supports a safe and enjoyable environment downtown for businesses, residents and students,” the city said in a news release.

There will be no on-street parking allowed during the closure. Residents and visitors are encouraged to use parking lots nearby. Any vehicle parked on the street after 9 p.m. will be towed at the owner’s expense.
