Starting on Monday June 26th, the Southwest Miramichi River Bridge Number 2 in Blackville will be closed to all vehicle and pedestrian traffic as the decking and sidewalk are replaced.
Blackville Mayor Chris Hennessy says that there is a plan for emergency services access when the bridge is closed.
It will be off-limits for about 60 days.
Greenland says it won’t stop harvesting Atlantic salmon, despite a request by scientific experts at international meetings.
That country says it will harvest as much as 14,000 large salmon this year, many of them from endangered runs such as the rivers in the Campbellton and Miramichi areas.
Due to dwindling numbers of fish, the feds have banned anglers from keeping young salmon caught in the Gulf of St. Lawrence region; for three seasons straight.
