Kitchener's Victoria Street bridge is set to reopen in time for the Monday commute after being closed for months for reconstruction.

"Weather permitting, Victoria Street will be re-opened to traffic on the evening of Oct.28," the Ministry of Transportation told CBCK-W in an email.

The bridge has been closed since the end of February. Construction was scheduled to last until the end of November.

The reconstruction is part of thefirst phase to build a new, four-lane Highway 7 between Kitchener and Guelph.
