Initially panels were removed, repaired and replaced in an attempt to reduce the noise caused by vehicles using the bridge.
After monitoring the progress Parks Canada has determined the repair was successful in reducing noise but there are still panels that will need repair.
In the coming days additional temporary hold-downs will be installed. To minimize impacts on traffic, the work will be carried out during regular bridge swings. The bridge will not be closed, though delays due to extended bridge swings can be expected. The repair work will not impact navigation along the waterway.
Parks Canada advises that traffic control measures which were put in place a few weeks ago to slow down traffic approaching the bridge are still in place and will remain until the temporary work has been completed.
