Houston, BC.- 30 Kilometers of highway 16, east of Smithers, will be getting a resurface this year.

A contract has been awarded to Green Roads Recycling of Fernie for the work, which will begin in July of this year.

The project is between Wakefield Road, about 27 Kilometers east of Smithers and the Pleasant Valley overhead 4 kilometers west of Houston .

The resurface will involve removing the old asphalt then heating it, and then putting it back down.

The project is valued at $3.6 million and is to be complete by September.

Chump change towards the improvements this highway requires.

Resurface the goat track that runs from Domano to Gauthier Rd,.

How about re-surface the road that was just re-surfaced 3 years ago just east of Burns Lake. Probably the biggest waste of 10 million dollars by the MOH.

weaksauce. I was thinking about that the other day. Was it a year or two years ago the Ministry tore up that portion of the hi-way, put that chip seal ( or whatever you call it ) down, and now its destroyed.
