Bridge construction projects are underway to replace two bridges near Jaffray.
One is located two kilometres east of Jaffray and the other crosses Big Sand Creek, approximately 2.5 kilometres east of Jaffray.
“Highway 3 is a critically important route all the way from the Alberta border to Hope,” said Rob Fleming, Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure.
“These new, modern structures will support local residents, tourists and commercial users – keeping people and goods on the move.”
The bridges being replaced were originally built in the 50s and are reaching the end of their service.
Construction is underway and should be complete by 2025.
The project has a $25.1-million price tag.
