Third Crossing main span begins arriving in Kingston
February 18, 2021
This week marks another milestone for the Third Crossing project with the first shipment of steel girders for the main span. The main span will be a significant feature of the bridge that will have two lookout spots for residents to enjoy the views of the Cataraqui River.
“I’m excited to see the arrival of this architectural feature. As these steel girders are installed, we’ll really begin to get a sense of what this bridge will be,” says Mayor Paterson. “I’m so pleased with the team’s progress on this historic project. Every milestone is one step closer to a more convenient and connected Kingston.”

But after I paid the ticket, I received a letter from Ontario’s Ministry of Transportation saying that I now have three demerits. Can I get them removed? – Vikas, Brampton

THUNDER BAY – City council focused on finding savings in the 2021 municipal budget Tuesday, wrangling the proposed tax levy hike below 2 per cent before growth.
In the first of four budget review sessions that will run into February, councillors debated just how far the city should go to trim tax hikes and protect its financial reserves, as it faces down millions in COVID-19 costs.
