Council Members in Toronto for Good Roads


Members of Kenora City Council are on the hunt for more funding to fix up our aging bridges this week.

Mayor Dave Canfield and a couple of councilors are in Toronto for the Ontario Good Roads Conference.

Canfield says while they have been told they can apply for two million dollars in infrastructure funding, it falls far short of what they need.

Canfield says the cost alone of fixing up the West Branch Bridge over the Winnipeg River has
been estimated at over six million dollars.
