Feb 25, 2009

On Tuesday, February 24th Bridge Commission general manager and CEO, Steve Snider, spoke to members of the Halifax Chamber of Commerce.

The luncheon presented an opportunity to share the Bridge Commission’s vision for what needs to be done to ensure our region has a sustainable transportation system.

Mr. Snider outlined strategies the Bridge Commission are seriously considering to reduce growing traffic congestion. He also referenced the transportation demand management strategies HRM is implementing.



He emphasized the importance of all levels of government working together to bring about change to our transportation system because, if significant changes are not made to how people get around, we will have to confront the reality of building another harbour crossing or sitting in gridlock.
