Quebecers to face roadwork this summer

Summer temperatures won’t be the only thing heating up Quebec roads this year as drivers will face lots construction work.

The government has announced a plan of $3.9 billion for road work in the province. Over $400 million will go to the 50 projects expected in Montreal.

Work will be done on the Decarie Interchange and the Dorval Circle, as well as the Metropolitan highway.

Transportation Minister Sam Hamad says most of Quebec’s roads are in good condition. But there is still more work to do and that is why the government is investing the money. He says people who haven’t been in Quebec since 2002 will see a big difference.
