Construction on the Edwards Creek Bridge on Highway 20 is almost done.
The project started in January this year with the goal of being finished in September.
Dauphin MLA Brad Michaleski made the announcement this morning and says when the bridge will be open.
"I'm told it's on or around Wednesday, October 7th. I talked to the foreman here on-site and it might be plus or minus one day, but hopefully it'll be open by the weekend."
There had been restrictions on the bridge for many years, but those restrictions have been removed for the new bridge.
Michaleski says there have been discussions about the provincial government doing some touch-ups on the RM of Dauphin's roads where the detour was.
He says any work there would likely happen in the spring.
