Another Public Information Center on Highway 17 Twinning

It looks as if a final route for the twinning of the Trans-Canada Highway west of Kenora is
going to be delayed for a few more months.

At least two more public information sessions are planned before a final decision is made.

The next open house will be held on October 2nd at the Kenora Legion.

The consultant tasked with doing the route plan says the additional public information centers
have been arranged to deal with some of the concerns raised by residents in the Clearwater
Bay area.

A final route plan is expected to be presented at a fourth public information session sometime early in 2011 and the prelimiary design is scheduled to be unveiled by summer of next year.
