This is a release from the City of Ottawa:

Mayor Sutcliffe and Members of Council,

Further to my memo of March 20th, this is to confirm that the Chief William Commanda Bridge was opened earlier this morning. We will continue to monitor the weather and the bridge condition to ensure the bridge surface remains safe for users.

In the event of a weather event or drop in temperature causing snow and/or ice accumulation on the bridge deck, staff may be required to temporarily close the bridge until conditions allow for safe pedestrian and cycling access.

Alain Gonthier
General Manager, Public Works
