CANADAHALIFAX news Macdonald Bridge to shut down for part of the weekend due to maintenance by admin 15 أغسطس، 2024 written by admin 15 أغسطس، 2024 66 By CityNews Halifax Staff Commuters in the Halifax Regional Municipality are about to undergo 36 hours without use of Halifax’s main cross-harbour span, starting at 7 p.m. on Friday. The Macdonald Bridge is set to close to vehicle traffic until Sunday at 5:30 a.m. According to Halifax Harbour Bridges, the clsoure is due to regular maintenace including resurfacing, painting, testing of a new lane reversal system and other work. “One of the critical parts is (because) we are replacing an electrical system so there will be no power on the bridge,” says HHB spokesperson Steven Proctor. “They can’t do the repairs while there is traffic on the bridge.” Proctor says the pedestrian walkway and bicycle lane will remain open throughout the weekend. A closure for further maintenance on the Macdonald Bridge may be required during a weekend in mid-September but details will be announced once they are finalized. As for the MacKay Bridge, Proctor says he does not anticipate any further weekend closures for the remainder of the summer. 0 comment 0 FacebookTwitterPinterestEmail admin previous post معدلات السرطان عند الرجال ستزيد بنسبة 84 في المئة خلال 3 عقود next post Lunenburg RCMP catch man wanted on Canada-wide arrest warrant You may also like v 20 سبتمبر، 2024 More pharmacies added to community primary care clinic... 20 سبتمبر، 2024 Head of committee monitoring response to N.S. mass... 19 سبتمبر، 2024 Wednesday’s hot weather breaks 125-year-old record in Halifax... 19 سبتمبر، 2024 Local authors focusing on upcoming literature event in... 19 سبتمبر، 2024 لوغو طلب من الكتلة الكيبيكية إسقاط ترودو لكنها... 19 سبتمبر، 2024 كندا ’’ملعب‘‘ للتدخل الأجنبي وفقاً لنائب كندي 19 سبتمبر، 2024 كندا تمتنع عن التصويت على مشروع قرار يدعو... 19 سبتمبر، 2024 خفض عدد الطلاب الأجانب في كندا بـ10% إضافية 19 سبتمبر، 2024 Canadian Coast Guard crew member lost at sea... 18 سبتمبر، 2024
