    Mayor Jim Parsons says this $10.5 million dollar project was needed to be able to open the new hospital next year.

    It’s created headaches for some motorists in Corner Brook and now, Mount Bernard Avenue is open to through traffic, both ways. All barricades have been removed and the area is now accessible. Mayor Jim Parsons says this $10.5 million dollar project was needed to be able to open the new hospital next year. He says they have a base coat down but they plan on laying another layer of asphalt. Parsons says they were hoping to open the street last week but had a water break in an unfinished area.
