The end is nigh — for street closures near the construction site for the new North Park Street roundabout.

Officials with the Halifax Regional Municipality say the new roundabout near the North Common is entering its final few weeks. The final phase requires the the city to close two additional streets beginning Monday.

North Park Street will be closed to southbound traffic between Cornwallis and Cogswell streets and Cogswell will be closed in both directions between North Park and Robie streets.

At the moment, Ahern and Trollope streets are closed to all vehicles except local traffic accessing Citadel High and the recreation centre next to it. Those closures, as well as inbound traffic closures from Quinpool and Robie Street remain in place until the project is completed, as does access to Rainnie Drive.

The city says once the new roundabout opens, Rainnie Drive will be one-way only between Cogswell and Gottingen streets.

Officials are advising cyclists and pedestrians to keep an extra eye out for closures and detour signs which can change frequently.

The municipality says, barring weather delays, the roundabout is expected to open Aug. 24.

More work will need to be done on a nearby trail and the new pedestrian plazas, which will continue into September.

The city of Halifax estimates 20,000 vehicles travel through the intersection of Cogswell and North Park streets every day. A total of six streets feed into the intersection.

The city is pouring $13 million into the two roundabouts, improvements to the Halifax Common, new public spaces, as well as new curbs, sidewalks, trees, lighting and underground utilities as part of the North Park Intersection Redesign.
