False 🚨

No slowdowns on the MacKay to Dartmouth - just the regular heavy traffic HFX-Bound

Seeing back-ups in BOTH directions on the MacKay Bridge...

Those slowdowns just started - so I assume they'll get worse...

But not sure what's causing those back-ups - but the issue looks like it's near the middle of the Mackay.

From Build Nova Scotia: The Shaw Wilderness Park trail from the parking lot to the dam site is now open. The trail was closed temporarily to accommodate work to replace the Williams Lake Dam. This marks the end of work on site for this year. Work will resume in the spring to replace the dam.

We have HUGE back-ups on the Circ headed for the Mackay Bridge, HFX BOUND.

The circ is backed up past the Big Mall in Dartmouth...

Pretty sure it's because of the collision on Barrington - because traffic is slow coming off the MacKay, headed for Barrington #HFXTraffic

We've got a collision on Barrington Street.

That's near the intersection with Devonshire, near the HFX Shipyard.

Traffic is getting backed up between there and the MacKay Bridge #HFXTraffic

UPDATE: the collision on Portland is downtown, right in front of Moffatt's Pharmacy.

There also closed roads and construction in the area.

So expect delays - and maybe avoid the area if you can #HFXTraffic

Looks like a collsion on the SMBR - JUST off HWY 103 - before you get to the Prospect Road.

Looks like this is causing many folks to stay on the 103, and head to the 102

Listener Doug reports a Jeep lost a wheel on Main Street.

That's blocking the Right-hand-lane on Main Street inbound, near the Forest Hills extension (not far from the Nova Scotia Power substation)
