DTI minister cancels meeting on Wheaton Bridge with Mitton and Black

On today’s show, the fate of the Wheaton Covered Bridge is still up in the air after Transportation and Infrastructure Minister Richard Ames cancelled a meeting scheduled with Memramcook-Tantramar MLA Megan Mitton and Tantramar Mayor Andrew Black on Monday. We speak with Mitton to get an update on where things stand with the 108-year-old covered bridge, which was closed on July 11 due to structural issues.

Plus in briefs, Dorchester’s Moving Forward Cooperative has hired a new executive director, and Tantramar council voted to move forward with a draft by-law governing lawns on residential properties.
