Residents will have to wait a little bit longer for the northbound lane to reopen between Civic Centre Drive and Thatcher Drive on Main Street North.

The City of Moose Jaw is advising motorists that the lane closure has been extended to March 19.

The closure is needed to allow KMS Construction safe movement of equipment used to complete construction on the East Feeder Water Main Replacement project.

The closure was initially supposed to end on March 12, but poor weather caused delays.

The speed limit is reduced to 30 km/h and motorists are reminded to obey all signage in the area.
