Quote:
The Department of Transportation and Works is estimating that it will cost $40 million to $50 million to finish the Team Gushue Highway extension in metro St. John's, with a more direct route and modern interchanges to connect to other roadways.
But it doesn't appear the work is going to happen any time soon.
The province is strapped for cash, and all federal money committed to the project has already been spent.
"We're really going to have to review where we are coming into this year's budget and subsequent budgets," Transportation Minister Steve Crocker told CBC News.
"So right now, I would not hazard to guess if this is something that the province would be able to afford to do in the immediate future."

Unsurprising but also not great when you are putting infrastructure projects on hold during an economic downturn.
