Niagara-on-the-Lake is making a few changes to the Queen Street Pilot Program.

The street will reopen to through traffic on weekends and holidays but street parking lots will now be part of the walkway.

This will give pedestrians more space for physical distancing.

A portion of Regent Street, north of Queen Street, will also close to allow for more seating space.

This will affect the area between the Stage Coach Family Restaurant and Greaves Jams and Marmalades.

You will still be able to access municipal parking lot on Regent Street.

Members of the public will be able to provide their input on the new changes once a new survey launches on Join the Conversation this Friday.
