The 54\u002Dmetre\u002Dlong bridge won’t be open to the public, but will instead allow special forces to move equipment and personnel from one portion of the Dwyer Hill Training Centre to another situated across the road.
The 10-year construction project at the Dwyer Hill Training Centre will meet JTF2’s long-term growth, training and high-readiness operational needs, according to Defence Minister Anita Anand. Work includes replacing 89 aging and temporary structures with 23 new facilities; renovating seven buildings; and upgrading the site’s utilities.
Construction work is largely expected to take place between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m., Monday to Friday, he said. “We will also offer to carry out baseline well water tests at nearby properties before construction begins,” Le Bouthillier said. “This will allow us to compare baseline water values to future water test results if any issues or concerns arise during construction.”Article content
