Transport Canada

Transport Canada oversees marine transportation regulations and guidelines in Cole Harbour, Nova Scotia, specifically focusing on navigation under the Confederation Bridge, which connects Canada's mainland to Prince Edward Island. The organization ensures compliance with safety standards and navigational rights, particularly for vessels transiting the Northumberland Strait, and addresses seasonal ice conditions that may affect vessel movement.

Through its comprehensive guidelines, Transport Canada enforces regulations for vessels based on their gross tonnage and establishes necessary protocols, including compulsory pilotage for larger vessels. The agency aims to protect both vessels and infrastructure by providing clear directives for navigation in the waters surrounding the Confederation Bridge.
