WHAT: Queen Street, from King to Regent Street, will be temporarily closed to support the Niagara-on-the-Lake Icewine Festival. On non-event days, the north lane will be open to accommodate one-way traffic, flowing west from King Street toward Regent Street.
When the north lane is open, barricades will be used to manage traffic flow and maintain separation between vehicles and the event area. On event days, Staff will remove most barricades, leaving only those necessary to ensure full road closures at the intersections of Queen and King Street, as well as Queen and Regent Street.
