Minister Set To Reveal Some Details About Harbour Bridge Work

The cone of silence is about to be lifted about what's happening with upgrades to the Harbour Bridge.


CHSJ News has learned Transportation Minister Claude Williams will be making a statement in the Legislature today - and - a traffic advisory will be posted shortly after the statement.

The Minister told CHSJ News in early April the toll plaza would be demolished and changes made to the traffic lanes in that area by June -- he also indicated negotiations were underway regarding the planned upgrade on the eastbound lanes of the bridge.

That work was originally scheduled to get undeSaint Jorway last month - but - that was before the deal was announced between Ottawa and the province to remove the tolls from the bridge.
