MUNICIPAL ROADS PLAN

The municipality resurfaces as many rural roads as possible as funding becomes available. There is no plan to straighten or widen roads; they are not intended to be high- speed expressways. Blacktopping is the best possible means of dust control; it eliminates the need for grading and makes winter maintenance easier. Since the phasing out of Dombind, the more expensive calcium chloride has been used for dust control on the roads that have not yet been resurfaced.

Since blacktopping is relatively expensive (approximately $16000/km for a 20' road) only a few roads can be done each year. The plan shown on the map lays out planned future activity in the improvement of our roads.
