REGINA — A $22.7 million highway construction project is underway near Kenaston. The two-year major highway improvement project will include construction of a subgrade, widening and resurfacing on Highway 15.
The Highway 15 corridor allows goods to be trucked without the need to raise or temporarily cut utility lines and other structures.
The Highway 15 construction project is 22 kilometres, which runs from 15 km east of the junction with Highway 11 to about 20 km west of the junction with Highway 2. The project will include culvert replacements and road widening work this year, which is expected to be complete this fall. Paving work will begin during the 2024 construction season.
"This is a major project that will take time to complete," Highways Minister Jeremy Cockrill said. "We appreciate the patience of drivers who slow down for safety …”
Langenburg Redi-Mix of Regina is the general contractor.
