The Department of Transportation has expropriated land on both sides of the river where a temporary road will be located while it replaces the bridge in Cape Broyle near 249 and 251 Main Road.
The expropriation was necessary because ownership of the land could not be determined.
“Residents may notice increased activity in the area as preparations for this project begin. We appreciate everyone's patience and cooperation while this important infrastructure work is completed,” stated the Town.
Any person claiming title to, or an interest in the affected land, or who has been detrimentally affected by the expropriation is required to submit notice to the Minister of the Department of Transportation and Infrastructure no later than Aug. 13, 2026.
