Don't twin Dugald: City

A route that serves an estimated 12,000 vehicles per weekday isn't a high enough priority to get twinned in the near future, says a city staff report.
The report, which heads to the city's East Kildonan-Transcona community committee on July 16, said the estimated $40-million cost to twin the two-lane Dugald Road, from Plessis Road to the Perimeter Highway, is too high for the "expected poor return on investment" it would provide.
This would have been a route that would have serviced an ever expanding base of people to Eastern Winnipeg, Transcona and communites that are growing in rural areas to the East of the City. For those commuters that are familiar with this route, It's to bad that this route will not be twinned.
