Traffic will be disrupted next week while the city repairs a watermain. 

According to the City of Timmins, the westbound entrance ramp onto Highway 655 from Algonquin Boulevard will be closed starting May 27 at 8 a.m.

The closure is to repair a watermain and to allow for the completion of restoration work.

"All traffic turning north from the westbound lanes will be forced to turn right at the intersection and will not have access to the ramp to merge with traffic. Tractor trailer vehicles will have some difficulty turning right at this intersection and will need to plan their turn accordingly," reads the notice

Access to the ramp is expected to be restored by May 31 at 4 p.m.
