A major thoroughfare connecting Mount Pearl and Goulds will be closed starting tomorrow for nearly six weeks.

The underpass linking Commonwealth Avenue and Robert E. Howlett Drive (Goulds Bypass) will undergo construction of a new roundabout for the final phase of the Team Gushue Highway extension.

Traffic will be rerouted through Main Road, Goulds, and Ruby Line during the roadwork.

Crews will close the road starting at 7 a.m. Monday.
