Construction on a water line replacement will begin Monday on Maple Avenue, also Route 60, between Sixth and Seventh streets in Dunkirk. As a result of the construction portions of the northbound lane of Route 60 between Sixth and Seventh streets will be closed and traffic lanes will be shifted to the center and southbound lanes. There will be no parking at that location during the entire time of the water line construction.

“No parking” signage will be posted and there will be barriers in place for proper lane usage and construction personnel directing traffic. Please pay attention when travelling in this area and be prepared for possible delays. The no parking violations will be strictly enforced during the construction process and vehicles will be towed if they block traffic, create safety issues or interfere with the construction process.

The Dunkirk Police Department and city are asking for cooperation from residents and motorists until the project is completed.
