The Ministry of Highways is looking for input on the future of the intersection of Highway #1 and the Grand Coulee access road.

The ministry has launched a survey asking anyone who has an interest in the future development to take part.

Spokesperson Patrick Book says it’s become clear that eventually, this project needs to get done.

“It’s a critical link, this area, between people, and businesses in the RM, and the town specifically,” said Book. “There’s been a lot of commercial developments near the highway that’s happened in recent years, so the ministry has recognized the need to look into additional safety and traffic flow improvements just to make sure everyone is being serviced like they need, and that it’s safe and that traffic can flow appropriately.”

Book says online surveys replace open houses in a time where COVID-19 prevents people from coming together in-person to share ideas.
