Come for coffee. And we can go for a drive.

I think you might have a different opinion after.

And on your way you can check out the empty global transport hub.

I actually took a pretty detailed drive through your southern secondary roads earlier this winter. I think your highways are pretty darn good. Looks to me like your gov. is planning for the future. No gov. is gonna please everyone.

Just make sure you dont take your coffee for a ride that road is shit . I hope to god they keep going fixing it . Think sask needs a nuclear powered paving machine .

In the early 90s when I was driving to Iowa .... I was amazed at how fast they could redo an interstate.

They could chop up cement and re pour faster than any pavement crew on the highways today in saskatchewan.

And that was 20 years ago.

Not sure what the **** is wrong with the machinery available today.

Oh wait, forgot about rail line abandonment and grainco consolidation.

Now they have to rebuild the road bed.

Canada could use a lesson building roads from the US .

Ya it is pretty amazing how the americans build their interstates.

farma, bucket,,, the costs for these interchanges, over passes and something like a cloverleaf are phenomenal, even though most of the work is just moving dirt!
A gov't can run through a few hundred million pretty quick with just a handful of projects.

Question, why didn't the price of asphalt drop more with the downturn of crude? Maybe because everyone knows that when the gov't spends on infrastructure, it's usually on roads.

What better customer to pay up than the gov't.

Bucket, i would've stopped in but i didn't know which million dollar farmhouse was yours.
