The twinning of the Highway 15 bridge has been included in the provincial budget.

Residents and members of city council have been asking for the province to look at transportation issues for several years.

“The announcement is very good news for the prosperity of Alberta’s Industrial Heartland and for the quality of life for our residents. We look forward to continued dialogue with the province and our community as the project unfolds and more information is available,” commented mayor Gale Katchur.

More information as it becomes available.
