Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Transportation. It is concerning the added amount of vehicles on our roads as a result of the mines up north. On the Ingraham Trail, there was a truck that flipped last year after it came around a corner. It fish-tailed and flipped over. This was a huge truck. It was carrying a load. Also, last year about this time there was a MLA walking with his dog, and a truck was coming, and they had to dive off the road to get out of the way.
Yesterday, one of my constituents had to stop on the side of the road as three large trucks passed her. They had a wide load sign, and there were lights on the side of the truck, but the wide load sign itself did not have any indication as to how wide the load was, and it is very dangerous. My constituent was very frightened and upset and she stated that someone is sure to be killed on that road. I understand that there is going to be about 2,000 vehicles on that road in the next two months. We all know that the Ingraham Trail is just that, a trail. I would like to know if there are any plans to widen Ingraham Trail, to make it safe for vehicles and pedestrians alike? Thank you.
