Maple Avenue Bridge support grows in Medicine Hat poll
A NEWS telephone survey of 100 residents shows 85 percent support the Maple Avenue Bridge now and 68 percent back planned riverbank tree removal for access routes. Opinions vary by district, with Riverside leaning against the plan, and debate centers on tree removals and public access. The project is paused after provincial rejection of a $600,000 first phase, with reconsideration slated next year.
