The County's current Capital Construction budget consists of approximately $8.8 million to be spent towards rehabilitating and reconstructing County roads and approximately $0.5 million towards bridge and culvert repairs and replacements. The individual projects are selected, designed and implemented based on the current needs of the projects listed below and the availability of Provincial/Federal funding.
Traffic will be maintained in most of these areas throughout the construction period, however, delays should be anticipated. Some of these projects will require road closures and detours to facilitate construction. Please refer to the County's ROAD CLOSURES page for the most recent updates.
