Bridge Over Morris River on PTH 3 Now Closed to Traffic

Manitoba Transportation and Infrastructure has closed the bridge over the Morris River on Provincial Trunk Highway (PTH) 3 near Brunkild until further notice.

Due to structural instability, an emergency closure is in place to ensure the safety of travellers.

Both westbound and eastbound lanes on PTH 3 are closed to traffic, with a detour in place directing traffic to PTH 13 and PTH 2. Plans are underway to replace the structure.

Up-to-date information on highway conditions, including detours, restrictions and road closures, is available at www.manitoba511.ca/ or by calling 511.
