During this time, only one lane of traffic will be open in each direction with some short-term single direction closures on off-peak times for paving.
The city said Cockburn Street South will close from Jubilee to Churchill Drive for the duration of construction.
According to the project details, the city is planning temporary traffic calming devices in the surrounding neighbourhood streets to deter drivers from shortcutting.
As for Transit users, the city says bus services will be maintained, though there may be temporary stop closures or relocations and detours.
The closures are expected to last until October.
