The cost to repair the Keewatin Channel Bridge is expected to top
1.5 million dollars.
The bridge is the next one in the city which will need extensive work.
Mayor Dave Canfield says the repairs are necessary even the bridge underwent a significant overhaul less than 15 years ago.
Canfield says the expansion joints are in need of replacement.
He's hoping the provincial government will come to the plate once again and help fund the repair work.
