Several highway and road resurfacing projects are on tap for the north covering more than 190 kilometres of infrastructure during construction season.
Major projects taking place across the region include key investments along Highway 97 and Highway 27.
Highway resurfacing is underway on Highway 97 between Azouzetta and Mount Solitude, two hours north of Prince George.
