Orillia OPP are advising local residents to be prepared for an increase in traffic disruptions today due to the public visitation for Canadian folk legend Gordon Lightfoot.
The visitation is set for this afternoon, from 1 until 8 p.m. at St Paul’s Church, at 62 Peter Street North.
OPP are also saying that anyone wishing to pay their respects is asked to use the entrance to St Pauls that is on Neywash Street.
Due to the number of people expected to attend, Peter Street North between Coldwater and Neywash Street will be closed to traffic from 12:30 to 8 today, and OPP will be on-scene for traffic control.
