Traffic will be cut to a single lane from now until the end of the year as construction crews repair the south Perimeter Highway bridge.
Plans call for the bridge work to cut traffic to one lane in each direction during the repair period, with possible periodic night closures.
Crews plan to fix the problem of excessive cracking on the top layer of the deck by reinforcing the deck from underneath the bridge.
The bridge links the east and west banks of the Red River as part of the southern segment of the Perimeter Highway, a raised highway around Winnipeg that also acts as a dike.
Construction is expected to be completed by the end of the year.
