The Manitoba government will invest $110 million into a series of projects to improve the Trans-Canada Highway east to the Ontario boundary, Premier Greg Selinger announced last week.
Projects on PTH 1 east include intersection improvements, grade widening, paving, and bridge rehabilitation and construction.
“While the work to improve the Trans-Canada Highway east of Winnipeg will be underway in the spring, we are already planning further refinements to areas of the Trans-Canada west of Winnipeg that will enable the eventual raising of the maximum posted speed limit to 110 km/h for designated areas,” said Premier Selinger. “These projects will be set out in detail in the new year.”
There are a number of new, significant projects expected to begin next year, the premier said.
