Hello Brian McLelland,
Thank you for your email regarding the rehabilitation of Highway 69 from 1.4 km north of Highway
559, northerly to 4.5 km north of Shebeshekong Road, including the Shawanaga River Bridge.
The contract for this highway improvement project was tendered in March of this year, and
construction is planned over the next two years, commencing this summer. Work under the project
includes the following:
• Resurfacing of Highway 69 for 20.0 km;
• Rehabilitation of the Shawanaga River Bridge;
• Treatment of pavement distress areas;
• Drainage improvements including culvert lining and replacements;
• Replacement/adjustment of select guide rail;
• Replacement of select static signs;
• New left turn lane for northbound traffic on Highway 69 at Woods Road;
• New left turn lane for northbound traffic on Highway 69 at Highway 7182 (Shebeshekong
Road); and
• New illumination at the intersection of Highway 7182 (Shebeshekong Road) and repositioned
to accommodate the new left turn lane
Should you require any additional information, please feel free to send me an email.
Again, thank you for your interest in the project.
