Thank you, Mr. Chairman. a couple of questions. First off, the section of Highway No. 4 from Niven Gate to the city of Yellowknife, or into the city at the corner of the Explorer Hotel, most folks know and the department, I know, is well aware that this section of road is being used a lot for active transportation, whether it is bikers, walkers, runners, what have you. There is a large number of residents that, with a growing population out in the Niven Lake area, that are using that section of road quite regularly. I wonder if the department can provide us an update with regard to will there be repairs on that road? That road is in extensive need of repair on an ongoing basis. There is a development going in on that road, a new hotel. I expect there is going to be work done to get water and sewer across the roadway as well, proper entranceways made into that development. There was talk at some point of having this particular section of the road turned over to the city of Yellowknife, but they don't want to take responsibility until the necessary repairs have been done. Then, lastly, it seems like there is water trying to transfer from Frame Lake to Niven Lake constantly through that road. It is acting like a dam. Will there be appropriate repairs made to that surface of that road to make it safe, possibly widening the shoulders and as well adding culverts to that road? Thank you, Mr. Chair.
