Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) in Haldimand County say the blockade that’s closed a portion of Highway 6 near Caledonia for almost a month is coming down.

“Today, demonstrators worked on clearing the area of the barricades on the Highway 6 bypass,” OPP Const. Rod LeClair said in a release.

“OPP will work with the Ministry of Transportation to arrange the removal of the concrete barriers. This work will take place on Friday.”

No specific timeline has been set for the re-opening, according to LeClair.

“It is anticipated the road will be re-opened, following a complete inspection of the road and bridges along the Highway 6 bypass.”

Some of Highway 6 closed down on Feb. 24 as part of a solidarity demonstration, according to OPP.
