There will be plenty of road construction across Swift Current in the coming weeks.

 

Work on the Highway 1 and 4 interchange resumed last week, and Engineering Director Mac Forster says the focus right now is widening Highway 4 around the overpass.  He says, "That's to introduce additional turning lanes in that portion of the roadway, and they indicated within the next two weeks they should have base work complete, and be ready to do some paving on that section of roadway."

 

Forster says crews will also be completing the new westbound off-ramp and South Service Road within the next month.  He adds, crews will also put the finishing touches on the Battleford Trail extension, and re-pave some streets in the downtown area.
