It was also one of the top five worst roads named by the Saskatchewan Party before it took power in the 2007 election.
Reiter says there are a lot of bad highways across the province and he admits 22 is in deplorable condition.
But he says some survey work has been completed on the road and the ministry is looking at what maintenance can be done until it is rebuilt.
