Public Services and Procurement Canada announced Tuesday that the Union Bridge on the Chaudière Crossing, which closed in late April due to the danger of rising flood waters in the Ottawa River, will remain closed to private, commercial and truck traffic until construction work along the Booth Street-Rue Eddy corridor is complete.
