As we headed into the long weekend, $250 million worth of projects improving highways, bridges, culverts, and an airport are underway across the province.

Travellers are asked to watch for bridge replacements on Highway No. 3 near Hudson Bay and Highway No. 165 near Beauval. Large maintenance projects near Chaplin and Balgonie on Highway No. 1 are now finished. A paving project is also complete on Highway 40 near Blaine Lake.

To navigate this work, drivers are reminded to check the Highway Hotline for up-to-date road information. Clicking on the icons located along your route will provide detailed information about the project and notify you of local de-tours.

The weekly construction update provides Saskatchewan residents with the latest details on projects underway to help plan safe and efficient travel throughout the summer and fall.

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.
