Haifax-Dartmouth Bridge Commission

[Keith P.]

The preferred plan was always for a new "new bridge" to be built parallel to the MacKay. That is the only location that makes sense given approaches on either side.

I can see the old "new bridge" being limited to passenger vehicles and light trucks only, like the Macdonald is, to extend its life and reduce maintenance demands. Cable-stayed bridge designs are the current soup du jour in the engineering community.
