Resurfacing project will bring traffic restrictions and changes to Community Centre access through late November.
Motorists in Tillsonburg can expect road closures and traffic disruptions along Hardy Avenue. The Town of Tillsonburg has hired Dufferin Construction to carry out asphalt milling and resurfacing between the Community Centre access road and Sanders Street as part of its 2026 Asphalt Maintenance Program.
Construction is tentatively scheduled to be completed by November 27, weather permitting.
During construction, portions of Hardy Avenue will be closed to public traffic, with non-local motorists required to follow posted detour routes.
The Community Centre access intersection will remain open throughout the project, even while resurfacing work takes place. Designated public parking areas will also remain accessible.
However, vehicle access to the Lions Den entrance and South Pool entrance will be unavailable during the road closure.
Residents living within the construction zone will continue to have access to their properties, although temporary driveway restrictions may be necessary during paving operations. Affected residents will receive advance notice of any planned access disruptions.
The town is also advising residents not to park on the roadway within the construction zone.
Noise, dust and traffic delays are expected while work is underway. Motorists and pedestrians are asked to use caution around construction equipment and follow posted signs.
Anyone with questions or concerns can contact the town's Engineering Services department at engineering@tillsonburg.ca. Urgent concerns outside regular business hours can be directed to 519-688-3009.
Additional information, including the road closure and detour map, is available on the Town of Tillsonburg website.
