Engagement Session to be held on replacement of Frank Channel Bridge

Public Service Announcement

BEHCHOKǪ̀ (May 30, 2018) – An engagement session will be held on the replacement of the Frank Channel Bridge. This is a chance for residents to learn about the replacement project and provide their input into the project.

Located on Highway 3, the Frank Channel Bridge was built in 1960. The bridge is structurally safe; however, the GNWT is planning to build a new bridge that will be designed and constructed to meet the needs and challenges of the future, including improved visibility, wider lanes, and improved overhead clearance for commercial vehicles.

The engagement session will be held at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday, June 6, at the Kǫ̀ Gocho Centre in Behchokǫ̀. Dinner will be provided following the session.
