Repair work expected to be completed by April 2016
Covehead Bridge — one of the most popular areas in the P.E.I. National Park — will be closed to all traffic until spring.
Work on the bridge begins on Oct. 1 and is expected to wrap up on April 15, 2016.
The Gulf Shore Parkway, as well as the Gulf Shore Way multi-use trail, will also be closed between Shaws Beach and Covehead Bridge during the same period.
The repairs are part of $24 million in federal funding to improve facilities and infrastructure at P.E.I. National Park announced earlier this year.
