Leamington’s Seacliff Drive East To Be Closed For Reconstruction


As part of ongoing infrastructure improvements, the Municipality of Leamington is advancing the next phase of the Seacliff Drive East Reconstruction Project.

During active construction, Seacliff Drive East will be closed to through traffic between Regatta Drive and Seneca Road, with work expected to begin in early February.

The project is currently in Stage 1 of construction, which includes work along Seacliff Drive East from Regatta Drive to the west side of Seneca Road.

During Stage 1, access to businesses and properties will be maintained as follows:

  • Businesses and properties between Erie Street South and Regatta Drive Access is available via Erie Street South and Seacliff Drive East.
  • Businesses and properties between Seneca Road and County Road 33 Access is available via County Road 33 and Seacliff Drive East.
  • Left turns from County Road 33 to Mersea Road 1 Left-turn movements will remain available during this construction stage.

Businesses within the project area will remain open and accessible throughout construction. Further notifications will be shared as construction progresses and work transitions into future stages.

To safely accommodate construction, a signed detour route will be in place and clearly marked with orange construction and detour signage throughout the area. Detours will guide drivers around the closure using nearby collector and arterial roads.

Drivers can expect the following: 

  • No through traffic will be permitted within the active work zone.
  • Local access will be maintained where possible for residents and businesses within the closure limits.
  • Businesses remain open, with access provided via posted detour routes.
  • Detour signage (D-1 and D-2 routes) will be installed in advance of the closure to allow drivers to plan alternate routes.

Motorists are asked to follow all posted detour signs, reduce speed in construction areas, and plan for additional travel time.

The Municipality thanks residents, businesses, and motorists for their patience and cooperation as this important infrastructure project moves forward.
