Where is the Fairview Overpass?
October 5th, 2009 | Published in Halifax
So <b>where is the Fairview overpass?</b> LOL yeah, the way the Halifax Department of Transportation worded it when they “notified the public” was a bit vague, and they used a name that is not “official”. They assumed everyone knows what the Fairview overpass is, and where it is, just like they assume everyone knows that the Provincial highway #102 is called the “bi-hi”. There are about 50 overpasses that could constitute as a “fairview overpass” in Halifax. Anyway, the <u>Fairview overpass in Halifax</u>, where the construction will be occurring, will affect you if you go 1 of two ways into the city:
- The Bedford Highway, or
- down Lacewood, and out to Joseph Howe Dr., toward the Windsor St. Exchange.
As you can see below, it is between point a and b on the map. You know when you leave halifax, and you pass the windsor street interchange, you can loop hard right and get yourself on the Joseph Howe Dr? Well that “overpass” you drive under, is the Fairview Overpass. It is directly before the Windsor St. Interchange, one of only 3 ways onto the peninsula that Halifax sits on (besides the bridges from Dartmouth) These include:
- The Armdale Rotary
- The Windsor St. Exchange
- The Highway #102 Inbound
The majority of traffic that will not be able to use the construction route will likely divert to the highway 102 inbound route.
Regardless, it’s going to make my commute 50% longer in the morning. Nice. You may have found this if you are a frustrated Halifax commuter looking for:
