Fond memories of and current concerns over the Wheaton Covered Bridge

On today’s show, the Wheaton Covered Bridge on High Marsh Road is one of about 59 covered bridges left in the province. In addition to being a picturesque spot on the marsh landscape, the bridge connects an important transportation route for the region’s farmers.  We speak with some of those farmers, as well as MLA Megan Mitton, to learn more about the closure of the bridge and its impact.

Plus in briefs, upwards of 20 visual artists will populate the Sackville Waterfowl Park on Saturday for Art in the Park, and a major donation from Atlantic Industries Limited has helped the Sackville Memorial Hospital Foundation meet its 2024 fundraising goal.
