A temporary bridge will be built on Route 106 in New Brunswick, the main road that connects Sackville and Dorchester.
Motorists in the Sackville and Dorchester, NB area received some good news on Friday.
A temporary bridge will be put in place on Route 106, the main road that connects the two communities.
That route was closed on April 1 after heavy rains in late March damaged a culvert.
In a Facebook post, Tantramar Mayor Andrew Black said the Department of Transportation and Infrastructure (DTI) will install a bailey bridge on one side of the washout section on the road.
Black said the process has a few steps to it.
"Consultant design work, shipping of the bridge pieces and then work and placement," stated Black in Friday's post.
Black said the tentative start date is May 28 and the project will likely take four to five weeks to complete with the tentative end date of July 2.
