Road Closure - Thursday, May 26, 2022 - Update

Peterborough Police say that a suspicious package was not a threat. 

Early this afternoon May 26, 2022, officers were made aware of a suspicious package on the road in front of Peterborough City Hall.  

As a safety precaution, the road was closed, City Hall was evacuated and the OPP Hazardous Disposal Unit was called in.  They were able to determine that the container was not a threat.  

George Street between McDonnel and Murray Streets was reopened around 5:00pm.  

Thank you to the public for their patience during this time.
