It has been a very busy construction season for the County of Essex.

To date, approximately $8M worth of construction projects have been completed, including the rehabilitation of five structures, 30 kilometres of highway and construction of County Wide Active Transportation Systems.

These completed projects included structure rehabilitation at County Road 8 at Silver Creek, County Road 27 at Belle River, County Road 2 at Pike Creek, County Road 8 at River Canard, and County Road 42 at 8th Concession Drain.

“We are very pleased with the progress of the program to date” said Tom Bateman, Director, Transportation Services for the County of Essex. “Our construction schedules were very aggressive at the beginning of the season and we’ve been able to meet these timelines due to the support of our staff and contractors and of course, the patience and cooperation of the public”.
