The provincial government has announced almost 10 million dollars in funding to upgrade highways in the Northwest.
Northern Development Minister Dan Newman says more than 35 kilometres of Highway 502, south of Dryden, will be rebuilt.
This is the third of four stages that will see 502 completely rebuilt.
Meantime, an 18-kilometre stretch of Highway 17 near Upsala will be resurfaced and realigned.
Construction on both projects begin this spring.
