Western Rd Construction Impacts (between Burnlea and Platts)

Overview

The City of London has planned construction improvements for Western Rd between Platts Lane and
Burnlea beginning May 11, 2026. During construction, transit service will be impacted due to lane reductions along Western Rd, the closure of Philip Aziz Ave, as well as the closure of the Western and Sarnia intersection.
