Province to construct all weather road from York Landing to War Lake

 

The province says they’re looking to speed up the construction of all weather roads, airports and ferry service in the North.  

 

Thompson MLA and Minister of Infrastructure and Transportation Steve Ashton announced Monday that the province will be constructing a new road connection and ferry landing for York Landing as well as constructing an all weather road link between York Landing and War Lake.

 

The province is also looking to start construction of the new St Theresa Point Waasagamach ‎airport within 5 years. Ashton said however that they’re looking for the federal government to commit to cost sharing.

 

Keewatinook MLA Eric Robinson recently called for the same thing, asking for the federal government to match dollars for the Manitoba East Side Road Authority project.
