🚗 All roads lead to the Games!

➡ As you plan your trip to Maxville this August 4th and 5th, please consider the construction taking place on Hwy 417 from East of the Hwy 138 Interchange to the Dunvegan Rd overpass.

🦺 The Ministry of Transportation (MTO) anticipates that the current Eastbound Lanes will be under construction, and traffic will likely be placed under a single lane configuration in each direction during the Games weekend. MTO does not expect any closures impacting access to and from Hwy 417 at either Hwy 138 or County Rd 20 interchanges, but there may be some delays to traffic on Hwy 417 as there will be a single lane configuration.

⏰ Although MTO does not expect the impacts to be significant, we would like to encourage our guests and competitors to give themselves a bit of extra time to get to their events throughout the weekend.
