Prince George drivers are getting some good news ahead of the weekend.
The City confirmed they expect to re-open the John Hart Bridge to traffic in both directions starting tomorrow morning (Friday).
However, road crews will still be doing work on the shoulder leading to the odd closure, along with some maintenance work at the south end of the bridge.
The project was first identified in 2019, after an inspection of the sanitary forcemain crossing over the Nechako River on the bridge revealed areas of reduced pipe thickness and deteriorating hanger components.
In June, Prince George residents were advised by the City to avoid a section of the river beneath the bridge due to a sanitary sewer leak.
A temporary containment unit was created to minimize the spill.
