LaSalle Front Road Closed Due to Infrastructure Damage
Road Closure Impacts Local Businesses and Residents
LaSalle Front Road has been closed between Malden Road and Laurier Drive due to significant infrastructure damage. The closure has caused major disruptions for local businesses and residents, who are now forced to find alternate routes.
The damage was caused by a water main break that occurred on Monday, causing the road to buckle and sink. Crews are currently on the scene working to repair the damage, but it is unclear when the road will reopen.
Businesses Impacted by Road Closure
The road closure has had a significant impact on local businesses, many of which have reported a sharp decline in customers. Some businesses have been forced to close temporarily, while others have had to lay off staff.
One of the businesses most affected by the closure is the LaSalle Family Restaurant. The restaurant is located on Front Road and has been closed since the road was closed on Monday.
"This is a very difficult time for us," said the restaurant's owner, John Smith. "We rely on walk-in customers, and with the road closed, we've lost most of our business."
Residents Inconvenienced by Road Closure
The road closure has also caused major inconveniences for local residents. Many residents have to use Front Road to get to work or school, and the closure has forced them to find alternate routes.
One of the residents most affected by the closure is Mary Jones. Jones lives on Front Road and has to use the road to get to work every day.
"This closure is a major headache," said Jones. "I'm having to leave for work an hour earlier than usual just to get to work on time."
City Working to Repair Damage
The City of LaSalle is working to repair the damage to Front Road as quickly as possible. However, it is unclear when the road will reopen.
In the meantime, the City is urging motorists to avoid the area and use alternate routes.
