A preliminary route has been established for twinning the Trans-Canada Highway from the
Manitoba border to Rush Bay.
The Ministry of Transportation held an open house yesterday to allowthe public to review the maps.
Neil Ahmed is the project manager and says they have only completedthe first portion of the route plan.
Ahmed says for the most part the double lane highway follows the current route pretty closely except in the area of Royal Lake, wherethe highway is diverted to the south.
Construction on the 100 million dollar project is expected to beginnext year.
