Oxford Street construction impacts, July and August 2026

Street closures near London Campus 

As part of the City of London’s East London Link rapid transit project, construction continues near Fanshawe College’s London Campus. 

What Fanshawe students and employees need to know 

As of Wednesday, July 22 (weather permitting), the south portion of Oxford Street will be closed between Highbury Avenue and Second Street. Traffic will continue to use only one lane of travel in each direction, shifting to the north side of the street. This means: 

• Restricted access to Oxford Street from First Street  
• Restricted north–south travel through the Second Street intersection 
• Oxford Street remains open for east–west traffic

Driving detours 

Drivers should follow detour signs and allow extra time when travelling through the area. Navigation apps like Google Maps or Waze can help you plan your route.
