Released on April 29, 1999
Highways and Transportation Minister Judy Bradley today announced a
12.3 km paving project on Highway No. 11 near Hanley.
"This $897,000 project is expected to start in mid May and is planned
for completion in early June, 1999," Bradley said. "An estimated 12
jobs will be used in completing the project."
Anderson Rental and Paving Ltd. was awarded the contract for the
paving project as the lowest of five bidders. The paving project will
be done on the south bound lanes form 9.6 km north of Hanley to 2.6 km
south of Hanley for a total distance of 12.3 km. The $897,000 project
cost includes department-supplied materials and services.
"The department budget increased by $15 million this year so our
construction season continues to get busier and busier," Bradley said.
"The increased funding demonstrates our commitment to preserving our
investment in the Saskatchewan highway system."
