There may be no construction activity at the moment – but – the provincial Transportation Department says that’s about to change.
A department spokesperson tells CHSJ News a 3-million dollar contract for grading and paving of the Welsford Bypass will be awarded soon.
The contract involves grading and paving of 5-kms of new highway and four ramps in the Welsford area – and – we are told that work will start in about 3-weeks.
The 60-million dollar project is now scheduled for completion in the fall of next year – about a year later than originally planned.
