Unauthorized obstructions and tampering with detour signs

The Public Works Unit, Capital Unit, and the Public Safety Division of the Mohawk Council of Kahnawà:ke (MCK), along with the Kahnawake Mohawk Peacekeepers, would like to remind Kahnawa’kehró:non not to install or place any unauthorized objects/obstacles on local roads or tamper with posted detour signage.

Some of these objects can cause issues for emergency services, including possible damage to vehicles or delays in response times. Moving or tampering with detour signage can also cause safety issues for motorists and local residents trying to navigate within the community. To assure safety for all concerned, these unauthorized objects will be removed. The detour road will be monitored over the next few weeks, and if required, some additional signage and safety devices could be installed.

The Old Chateauguay Road project will continue for the next few months, and all stakeholders are collaborating to ensure the area remains open to local traffic only.

The MCK would like to thank you for your patience and understanding.
