Minstry seeks feedback on Highway Options
T
by Kelsey Snelgrove
he future path of the highway has been a source of speculation for years, so it was no surprise that there was a good turnout for the Information Session on Tuesday by the The Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure. Over 200 Chase and area residents showed up to view project plans and ask questions regarding four laning of the section of the Trans-Canada Highway from Hoffman’s Bluff to Chase. “We had over 95 people come in the first hour, which is great,” said Jeff Knight of the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure.
Those who were unable to attend can view the presentation online, and provide feedback by June 12th. (The page can be accessed from this shortened URL http://bit.ly/283IMom) Three different options were presented for the section from Hoffman’s Bluff to Chase, all with price tags between $47 and $50 million in cost. Project Manager Ken Aura said the Pritchard to Hoffman’s Bluff portion of the project should be completed this fall. The Chase Creek Road to Chase portion would ideally begin in the spring of 2017 and is slated to be completed in 2019. Continued on page 12
