If you're travelling in and out of Meadowbrook this week, be prepared to take some detours.

Starting Wednesday morning, Meadowbrook Drive will be closed as the City of Airdrie moves to replace a sanitary mainline.

"The sanitary main is about five metres deep in the ground and in order for the contractor to excavate that safely and remove it safely and keep their workers safe, they need to close that whole road, unfortunately," said Project Manager Ryan Couillard.

The closures will start at 9:00 a.m. on Wednesday and the repairs are expected to wrap up around 5:00 p.m. Friday.

The city will have detours in place to redirect drivers around Meadowbrook Dr.

"Watch the signs and drive slow through the area," added Couillard.
