The Gateway Keewatin Corridor is hosting public presentations with a meeting, and then their Annual General Meeting next week. The presentations and meeting will focus on the upgrades of the Tote Road and the impact to industry and agriculture to the community and the north.
“We started a group on the Manitoba side in 2002, called the Highway 283 taskforce and the purpose of that was to get the road that goes west of The Pas towards Nipawin, SK, and the Alberta border, up to RTAC standards,” said Gateway Keewatin Corridor President Len Gluska. “We were looking for it to be brought up to a commercial road where it could have primary traffic and full semi loads of product moving on it. Where it’s at now, it’s only three months of the year.
