A section of the Digby Neck highway in Rossway is closed because a culvert at the bottom of Seawall Hill was damaged by heavy rain Thursday.

Motorists are being escorted through a one-lane detour that starts about 200 metres past Gulliver's Cove Road.

The transportation department says the 5.4-kilometre detour to Robichaud Road will be necessary for up to one week while a new bridge is built to replace the damaged culvert.
