More paving for highway
Published: September 08, 2009 7:00 PM
Three more sections of Highway 97 between Clinton and 100 Mile House are going to be four-laned this month.
Shirley Bond, Transporta-tion and Infrastructure minister, and Donna Barnett, Cariboo-Chilcotin MLA, announced the $3.8 million contract was awarded to Okanagan Aggregates Ltd.
The four-laning will be done on 2.5 kilometres at 59 Mile North, two kilometres at Bullock Lake Road South and one kilometre at Stormy Road South.
“Once completed, these improvements will greatly reduce travel delays and provide a safer driving experience for everyone — from area motorists to commercial vehicle traffic,” said Barnett.
Bond said the upgrades are part of the Cariboo Connector program, which has surpassed $240 million.
