The one of four weekend closures was to allow for maintenance and inspection projects that can't be done while the bridge is open.

“Projects expected to be carried out on the MacKay this weekend will be rescheduled to a later time. Halifax Harbour Bridges will announce the date of that closure as soon as it is determined,” reads a Wednesday afternoon release from the bridge commission.
