Public Notice: Caladh Avenue Street Closure Beginning May 4

Please be advised that construction work on Caladh Avenue will restart on Monday, May 4. The section of roadway closed to traffic will be Caladh Avenue from Market Street to Coleraine Street.

This important infrastructure project, which began in Fall 2025, plays a key role in strengthening coastal protection and helping safeguard the shoreline and surrounding area for the future. Work is anticipated to continue through the spring, with the goal of reopening the street for the summer season.

Project updates will be shared as work progresses. We thank residents, businesses, and visitors for their patience, cooperation, and understanding during this time.
