It might take you a little longer to get around Stratford.

Officials say there’s a temporary lane reduction in place on a stretch of Romeo Street between Devon Street and Delamere Avenue, near the bridge crossing.

They say the northbound lane will remain open for traffic in both directions, and will be controlled by temporary traffic lights.

The lane reduction is expected to last until at least mid-October, and is in place while watermain work is being done.
