CAPE BRETON, N.S. — The closures on the Seal Island Bridge will soon be over.

The closures, up to 30 minutes at a time, began June 22 and will cease June 27. It enables workers to install pre-cast panels on the bridge deck between the 11:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m.

For all other times, traffic on the Seal Island Bridge is reduced to one lane and is controlled by traffic lights or at times, traffic control personnel. Drivers can expect delays of up to 20 minutes most of the time, and slightly longer delays when Newfoundland Ferry traffic arrives.

Up-to-date information on the Seal Island Bridge reconstruction project can be obtained by calling the toll-free Highway Info Line at 866-720-2800.
