Motorists and bus passengers who rely on city transit to get around town should be advised that Ferry Avenue will be closed on Saturday to allow for overhead construction on the Simon Fraser Bridge.
Ruskin Construction, the general contractor on the project to repair the bridge at Highway 97 where it crosses the Fraser River, has issued a notice to inform the public the closure will be in effect starting at 5:30 a.m. Saturday and will last for 24 hours.
Two city bus routes, No. 46 and No. 47, will be rerouted to avoid the closure.
Signage and traffic control devices will be in place to warn drivers of the closure.
