The Route 1 Gateway project will be completed by October 25th. It includes 55 kilometers of newly twinned highway between Waweig and Lepreau.
Dexter Construction and the Provincial Transportation Department cite innovative ideas and new construction for the early finish date.
Early in the construction an archaeological site was discovered near Pennfield. It is believed to be 10,000 years old. Artifacts from this site will one day be seen in a museum.
