Road work to close Townsend Street in Sydney this week, no curbside collection Tuesday

As part of the Charlotte Street reconstruction, Townsend Street between the Esplanade and Bentinck Street in Sydney will be closed for much of the coming week.

In a statement on Saturday, Cape Breton Regional Municipality said the section of the downtown street will close beginning at 7 a.m. on June 11. It's expected to remain that way until the end of the day on June 14 — except in the evening, when the street would temporarily reopen. Northbound traffic will be redirected through Byng Avenue, while southbound traffic will go through Wentworth Street.
