Another 12 kilometres of Highway 11 twinning opened today from north of Osler to south of Hague.

"I am very pleased to see such progress on this important north-south corridor," Highways and Infrastructure Minister Wayne Elhard said.

A major rebuild of the Highway 39 bridge over the Canadian Pacific Railway tracks east of Estevan will include the use of metakaolin, a concrete strengthening additive being mined and manufactured by Whitemud Resources in south central Saskatchewan.

Highways and Infrastructure Minister Wayne Elhard just completed a three-day, 2,600 kilometre (km) tour of northern Saskatchewan as part of an infrastructure assessment to determine future planning needs.

Premier Brad Wall along with First Nations and Métis Relations Minister and Kelvington-Wadena MLA June Draude were in Foam Lake today to announce a $20 million investment to rebuild a portion of Highway 310, damaged by 2007 flooding in the Fishing and Waldsea Lakes region.

The Province is investing nearly $13 million in the provincial road network in the Melfort area this year to support the region's growing economy. This includes $10.6 million in highway repaving and $2.22 million in bridge work.
