Paving Projects Making Great Strides

Thanks to the sunny stretch of weather around the Province, the Department of Transportation is making great strides on several projects around the Province.
Asphalt is being laid in record time with over 500 thousand tonnes spread out to this point which means close to 70% of planned projects are completed.


Paving work is expected to continue until the third week of October.
As far as chip-seal programs are concerned, upgrades to 704 kms of road out of 815 have been finished to this point.


On the flip side, several concrete pours, including one at the One Mile Interchange had to be re-scheduled because of quality concerns due to the temperature.
