Mr. Speaker, in setting up schedules for wide loads that are moving down our highway system and up to the mines, we have to take a lot of factors into consideration, one of them being traffic. We did, as the Member requested, look at the time schedules. I asked my department, we looked at the amount of traffic and the length of highway that would have to be closed for short periods of time, based on that it was determined that the lightest traffic is from the hours of 9:00 until 11:30 in the morning. Mr. Speaker, I know there are other factors that have to be taken into consideration. I did have discussions with the Member this morning about the possibility of changing that schedule if it seems to be more suitable. Thank you.
