Road closures on Macdonald Bridge

The Macdonald Bridge in Halifax will be closed to vehicle traffic for two events: MACPASS Miles and Bridgewalk 2024 on August 4 from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. and the Natal Day Parade on August 5 from 7 a.m. to noon, with pedestrian access maintained. Meanwhile, local road closures are occurring due to maintenance work, including asphalt repairs on Lemarchant Street and drainage maintenance on Pillmawr Road, which will be closed on August 1 from 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. A busy road in Thurrock has been closed due to a small collapse and possible gas leak, with emergency teams responding. In Bridlington, Quay Road is partially closed due to a police incident involving a cyclist. Motorists are advised to seek alternative routes in all affected areas.
