Busy Summer for Sign and Paint Crews

Released on September 10, 2015

Weekly Construction Update

Dry summer weather has kept sign and paint crews busy across the province.   The $3 million invested in line painting could paint a line around the moon almost three times.

Sign and paint work now complete:
  • 30,000 km of edge and centrelines painted;
  • 21,000 pavements signs re-painted; and
  • 5,000 signs have been installed or replaced.
New construction this week includes paving sections of Highway 1 near Grenfell and Highway 16 near North Battleford.

Additional travel information about emergency road closures, the status of ferries, barges, and other road activities can also be found on the Highway Hotline at www.saskatchewan.ca/live/transportation/highway-hotline.   It's also available by calling 306-787-7623 in Regina, 306-933-8333 in Saskatoon and toll-free across Canada at 1-888-335-7623.

Drivers are reminded to observe posted speed limits in construction zones and slow to 60 km/hr when passing highway workers and equipment.

The Government of Saskatchewan has invested a record $5.2 billion in transportation infrastructure since 2008.
