Eastbound on Spencer Street Southeast the right lane is right turn only.

The work does not affect the use of Saratoga Trail and pedestrian access around the intersection is maintained.

Crews are repairing a gas pipeline which may release a slight gas odour but presents no public risk, the city says.

According to the city, work should be complete Wednesday with repaving and reopening expected Thursday.

They also remind motorists to obey all posted construction signage and use caution around the work zone.
