Repairs at Halifax and Dartmouth Ferry Terminals

(Monday, June 6, 2011) - HRM wishes to advise Metro Transit passengers of scheduled repairs to the pedestrian boarding ramps at the Halifax and Dartmouth Ferry Terminals.

Barriers have been erected on the pedestrian boarding ramps to facilitate the overhaul and restoration of the ramp surface and structural steel. Work is scheduled for completion in the next 6-8 weeks.

Passengers are reminded that due to the marine environment, materials used during the project may have significant odour. While measures are in place to help regulate the environmental impact, persons with sensitivities to strong solvents are urged to use caution and may wish to consider alternative transportation.

HRM apologizes for any inconvenience this may cause.
