One-day closure coming to Louise Bridge

Motorists who use the Louise Bridge will need to find another route later this week.

The busy North End bridge will be closed in both directions for a portion of the day on Friday.

Crews will close the bridge at 9 a.m. to do bearing repairs. It will reopen at 3:30 p.m. 

The bridge will remain open for the morning and afternoon rush periods, and pedestrians will still have access to the west sidewalk.

Commuters are encouraged to use either the Provencher Bridge or the Disraeli Bridge to cross the river during the closure.
