Drivers in Centretown should expect delays Saturday morning as Irish Week wraps up with a parade.

Participants will meet at 8a.m. on the Laurier Avenue Bridge and begin their march at 11 a.m. going west on Laurier Avenue.

They will then head north on Bank Street and proceed west on Wellington Street until they reach the Library and Archives Canada around 12 p.m.

Ottawa Police have also issued a safety advisory to “residents who participate in St. Patrick’s Day celebrations this weekend to do so safely, responsibly and in accordance with all laws.”
