HIGHWAY IMPROVEMENTS ON THE ROAD TO AVONLEA

Released on August 5, 1999

Motorists travelling the road to Avonlea will soon see improvements. A $1.3

million surfacing project east of town on 8.1 km of Highway 334 will begin in

August.



Crews will excavate the shoulders, build up the road and add a granular surface

to make the driving surface stronger. W.F. Botkin Construction of Regina will

also apply two layers of seal coat to protect the road from further

deterioration.



"An additional $15 million in this year's budget demonstrates the province's

commitment to improving the safety and comfort of drivers travelling within the

province," Highways and Transportation Minister Judy Bradley said.



38 people will be hired to re-surface the highway. Construction should be

completed in June of 2000.
