Extensive upgrades to Winnipeg’s north Perimeter Highway will begin Monday, according to the province.
Among the improvements are the construction of turning lanes, concrete pavement repairs, gravelling of existing service roads, and the removal of intersections and median openings.
The province says half a dozen intersections will close permanently. They are:
- Road 64 North
- Inkster Boulevard
- Prairie Dog Trail
- Summit Road
- Klimpke Road
- King Edward Street
Crews will be working west to east, and are expected to wrap up in October 2021.
