The City of Steinbach has announced that starting Monday, June 21, Park Road East will be closed to east and west bound traffic from PTH 12 to the east entrance of the Steinbach Aquatic Centre.

Officials say that the closure is required to complete road re-surfacing and expected to last until Friday, June 25.

Access to the Steinbach Fly-In Golf Course, Santa Lucia restaurant, and Aquatic Centre will be by detour using Loewen Boulevard, Old Tom Road, and the portion of Park Road East that will remain open. AD Penner Park will not be accessible by vehicle during the closure – however, the pedestrian pathway from the Aquatic Centre to the park will remain open.

During the construction, motorists are asked to reduce speed, follow all signs, and use caution in this area.

The project is part of the City of Steinbach’s road maintenance program which is estimated at $1.4M in the 2021 budget.
