Province invests in urban highway upgrades across Saskatchewan
Saskatchewan is investing in urban roads that connect to major highways, with projects planned in communities across the province, including Prince Albert and North Battleford.
Highways Minister Kim Gartner said the work is aimed at improving key transportation links for local traffic and supporting the province’s export-driven economy.
“Once completed, these projects will improve key transportation links, which benefits local traffic, commuters and keeps the provincial highway network better connected to move our export-based economy and support Saskatchewan’s quality of life,” Gartner stated.
In North Battleford, Territorial Drive on the city’s east side will be widened and repaved between Highway 16 and just north of Airport Road. The province is contributing $747,000 toward the project, with the city adding $243,000 and managing construction.
