Preparations are underway for the upcoming highway construction season in Saskatchewan with the release of more than 50 highway and bridge construction projects worth an estimated $131 million. The projects are part of the Ministry of Highways and Infrastructure's 2013-14 budget announced on March 20. The overall budget provides a total of $576 million to build, maintain and operate Saskatchewan's 26,000-kilometre highway system. 'This phase of construction and maintenance tenders will continue to improve safety and efficiency on Saskatchewan's highway network by putting contractors in place throughout the province,' Highways and Infrastructure Minister Don McMorris said. 'It's an investment to improve safety and to keep the provincial economy moving and growing.' For more information on the plan visit, www.highways.gov.sk.ca. _ Government of Saskatchewan
