Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I can sympathize with the department in doing something as far as a band-aid solution where this stretch of highway is concerned, but it seems to continually get worse every spring. For example, this spring there was one particular location where one vehicle went through a pot hole that was so sharp and buried in water that it could not be seen. A guy got two flat tires from going over the same pot hole when part of this section of the highway was covered with water.

One of the areas that is of great concern is where the railroad tracks cross the highway. There are three locations where the railroad tracks cross the highway. Could the Minister inform us as to who is responsible for the condition of the railroad tracks or the sections just approaching the railroad tracks? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
