Passing Lanes Update

The recent  provincial budget dedicated money to be used to complete preconstruction work on passing lanes between Delisle and Rosetown this year. This is a significant change given last year the government indicated that they would study the effectiveness of the passing lanes for 3-5 (?) years prior to expanding their use in other parts of the province. I would like to applaud the government on this change. Further, at our recent WCMGC meeting held in Neilburg the following resolution was passed.

31/14                           John Enns-Wind, Town of Kindersley/Kathy Heilman, Town of Wilkie:

                                    THAT the West Central Municipal Government Committee request the Ministry of

                                    Highways & Infrastructure to complete an assessment of traffic between Rosetown

                                    and Delisle with Rosetown and Kindersley to determine the greater need for passing

                                    lanes and further that, the WCMGC recommendation is to see Rosetown to

                                    Kindersley completed first.

                                                                                                                                    CARRIED

Good news for the continued economic development of West Central Saskatchewan.
