After nine months of detours, a key traffic artery just south of the Brock campus is open again.

Merrittville Highway reopened this week as work was completed on installing a new bridge across Lake Gibson and reconstructing the road access on either side of the bridge. The wider roadway now features bike lanes in both directions.

The completion comes two months ahead of schedule, thanks in part to last winter’s mild weather.
