COMPLANT, the company engaged to execute the Scotland District Road Rehabilitation Programme on behalf of the Ministry of Transport and Works, will on Monday demolish Bruce Vale Bridge in St Andrew.

Haigh Communications, in a release yesterday, stated that the bridge, which has been closed to vehicular traffic since 2021, will be reconstructed following the demolition. It is expected to be completed in ten months, weather permitting.

As a result, pedestrians will no longer be able to cross over the bridge and vehicular traffic will remain restricted.

Bus services, emergency and essential services will continue to access both sides of the bridge as usual. (BA/PR)
