Update: Salmon River Truss Bridge (NS Dept of Public Works)

Work on the Salmon River Truss Bridge will begin to affect traffic flow on November 21, 2025 for several weeks.

During this period:
- Traffic lights and lane closures will be in place - expect alternating lanes.
- The sidewalks will be removed and replaced, beginning with the west side. The east side sidewalk will remain open until the west side is complete.
- Bridge work will start on the Bible Hill (north) side of the bridge, then move to the Truro (south) side once the north side is finished.

There will also be two week-long overnight closures of the bridge from 7 PM to 6 AM daily expected to take place December 2 to 9 and later in December or January (exact dates to be announced at a later date).

There will be variable message boards (VBMs) displaying information regarding the construction work, located near the Engine Room (Truro) and near Century Honda (Bible Hill).

Construction schedules can change rapidly with work and weather conditions. For current updates, check: https://511.novascotia.ca/
