Upcoming Overnight Road Closure on King Street West for Culvert Replacement

Cobourg, ON (September 10, 2025) – The Town of Cobourg Public Works and Engineering Division would like to advise the community that due to the continuation of the culvert replacement project on King Street West, there will be intermittent electrical service disruptions and vehicle access restrictions overnight from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. on September 11 to 12, and September 12 to 13.

The impacted local residents have received a construction notice with further details, including emergency service access. The Town of Cobourg has been working across departments to provide accommodations for residents within this neighbourhood. The map below shows the boundary of the intermittent electricity shut off and vehicle access restriction. The King Street West road closure begins just west of Suzanne Mess Boulevard.

The next stage of construction involves the installation of the northern half of the new culvert. Because of limited space for the north stage of culvert installation, electrical service and vehicle access will be affected due to crane operations and delivery of the large culvert.

There will be a second stage required for the culvert replacement on the southern side of King Street West in a few weeks time. Another notice will be provided with details prior to the second stage of work being completed.

The Town of Cobourg thanks residents for their continued patience as we work to complete this important infrastructure project.
