The province has announced funding for the next phase of the four-laning of Highway 69.

$19.4-million is being made available to realign 2.7 kilometres of C-N railway tracks and build three new highway bridges at Highway 522 north of Henvey Inlet.

This project will make room for an interchange at highways 69 and 522.

The province announced earlier this year that the project, that was to be complete in 2017, has been pushed back to 2021.
