Thank you, Mr. Chair. We had $1.3 million of capital in the current fiscal year. With that we were able to do some ditching work on a problematic stretch from Kilometre 97 to 104. We were also able to do some surface repairs in the same stretch of road and put up some additional granular material so that it’s there for next summer when it’s required.

There is $1 million in the capital plan here for Highway No. 7. We will use it to keep the highway open. We will monitor conditions in the spring. We will take similar types of actions that we did this past year, which is to restrict traffic so that heavy vehicles were off of the highway at the times in the spring period when the road is most vulnerable to the heavy truck traffic. That did help us this year, by being aggressive with our weight restrictions. Of course, it doesn’t help the users of the road and those that want to use it for hauling heavy loads, but it is required in order to maintain the integrity of it.

Our current plan is that we will concentrate in about Kilometre 104 to 111 area. But as I mentioned, we’ll wait and see what the actual performance is next spring and into summer and then redirect so that the most urgent areas are addressed.
