The Rural Municipality of Morris, Manitoba, closed the bridge on Road 29 on March 2, 2026, to begin necessary repairs. This closure is expected to last for several weeks while crews work to restore the bridge structure.
The closure impacts local traffic, including farmers and school bus drivers who must now use alternate routes. Officials issued the notice to ensure public safety while maintenance teams complete the project.
Drivers in the area should plan for extra travel time and watch for detour signs to avoid delays. The municipality is focused on maintaining the safety of the local road network, which is often used by heavy agricultural equipment.
Residents are encouraged to check the municipality’s website for updates on the progress of the repairs. Maintaining these rural bridges is a regular part of keeping the community connected throughout the year.
