It was nice while it lasted, but overnight closures to the Macdonald Bridge are set to resume on July 3.
Halifax Harbour Bridges says the closures are necessary to complete the final elements of the nearly three-year-long Big Lift project.
Ten weeks of overnight closures are scheduled from 8 p.m. to 5:30 a.m., from Monday to Thursday. The closures include the sidewalk and bike lane.
