Input leads to action:

Through public engagement and consultation with local governments, Indigenous communities and other community organizations, the ministry has identified two preferred alternative routes that bypass the community and one preferred existing route along the current highway. The second and final phase of the study will establish the ultimate long-term preferred option and be completed in spring 2020. There will be opportunities to provide feedback on the option chosen.
