    Work on the Western Brook Bridge replacement project has started. Motorists can expect possible traffic slowdowns, sporadic periods of single lane traffic, and reduced speed limits until the project’s completion in September. Heavy equipment will be working in the area and travellers are advised to travel with caution, obey all on-site signage and posted speed limits, and follow travel instructions from flag persons and safety personnel. Workers are present from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. For a period of two weeks, the travelling public can expect a detour onto gravel surfaces during the transition from the temporary bypass to the new bridge approaches.
