Public Service Announcement
Full Road Closure – Apex Bridge Replacement
October 10, 2024 – Iqaluit, Nunavut
The City of Iqaluit would like to inform residents that the construction of the new Apex Bridge, originally set for completion by October 20, has been delayed until November 10, 2024.
The delay is due to unexpected issues with the ground underneath the bridge, which required extra work to ensure a strong and lasting foundation. Some rain delays have also added time to the project.
During this time, the full road closure on Niaqunngusiariaq Road in Apex will remain in effect. The bypass road, Angel Street/Helen Makasak Drive, will continue to serve as the detour for entering and leaving Apex. A temporary traffic light is in place to assist with traffic flow.
We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience as we complete this important work.
