Mr. Speaker, no, the department is not skimping on maintenance on Highway No. 3. As we know, the portion that is within the construction area is maintained by the company that is doing the reconstruction. The other piece on this side is the responsibility of the department. We're continuing to maintain it as best we can. It is a worn out, tired, broken down, old road and requires almost daily work on it to keep it passable. As far as it being unsafe, it probably is unsafe at some speeds, some conditions and so on, but I hope people can bear with us while we improve the road. We're doing another 20 kilometres this year. Thank you.
