The Government of the Northwest Territories is building a cablestay bridge to span the Mackenzie River near Fort Providence.The bridge will replace the operations of the Merv Hardie Ferry and the Mackenzie River Ice Crossing currently at that location.
"the bridge proposal required regulatory review from the Mackenzie Valley Environmental Impact Review Board, which was finalized in March 2005"
"was incorporated, and presented a proposal to the Government of the NWT to finance and build the bridge as a public–private partnership"
The bridge will be financed by the savings from the elimination of the ferry and ice bridge operation, $2 million annually (inflating) from the Government of Northwest Territories, and a toll on commercial vehicles crossing the bridge. Passenger vehicles will not be charged a toll.
