Algonquin Blvd. shuts down on Monday SHARE ON: The day we’ve been anticipating with some dread in Timmins arrives on Monday. Public works manager Ken Krcel says the connecting link project on Algonquin Blvd. will finally shut down the road, from Mattagami Blvd. to Thériault Blvd. “I’m not sure what time during the day that will happen,” Krcel tells My Timmins Now Dot Com. “They have some work to do to get that detour ready, but by the end of the day on Monday, Algonquin will be closed to through traffic.” Mattagami Blvd. will reroute traffic both ways between Wilson Ave. and the bridge.
