To all residents:

CN would like to advise all Sussex residents that initial work will be proceeding in the coming weeks to begin replacement of the rail bridge over Trout Creek, in Sussex (NB).

This work is necessary for the bridge replacement that will happen later in 2020.

There is not anticipated to be any impact on traffic on public streets.

CN would like to apologize for any inconvenience that this work might cause.

Any residents who have questions or concerns about this work may contact CN public inquiry line at 1.888.888.5909 or at contact@cn.ca.

Wild Parsnip – Here’s what you need to know

Wild Parsnip, also referred to as Giant Hogweed, is an invasive plant that has become more and more prevalent in our area.  Coming into contact with the sap can cause burns, scars and even blindness.  Children are especially vulnerable as they may be drawn to playing in the tall grasses and fields where it grows.
The link below will help you identify the plant so that you or your children don’t accidentally come into contact with it.
