Someone remind me, this bridge is temporary while they build the proper station? Or until a new tunnel is built?

Until the new station opens. The tunnel extension (not yet open) and new bridge will provide double the capacity until then.

Exhibition Station - Final Early Works Report:
The temporary pedestrian bridge is anticipated to be in place until the Ontario Line is in operation.
There will be tunnel access throughout, albeit from varying north portals, as an accessible option. The bridge will provide relief of congestion in the tunnel passage.
 
...they should extend that all the way down to OP, so Doug and his friends can go visit that private spa that's been slated to go there. Oh wait, they will already have a phat parking lot to drive their well heeled vehicles to...so NM. /s
 
Lots of progress on the new west-bound GO tracks and platform. According to a worker on site, the station (or maybe just west bound service) will close next Friday and reopen with the new platform and tracks the following Monday.

Lots of track is laid. Have another look at the photos (#4/14, 9, 10, and 11). There are still sections to go where it's just track ballast (#6, 7 and 8) and through where people get from Atlantic Ave/tunnel to get to the current platform, but that will be done during the weekend closure.
