Road to the Ring of Fire will have new culverts – Timmins Today

No major announcement emanating from Premier Ford on funding plans for roads into the Far North

GREENSTONE – The “gateway” to the Ring of Fire will be lined with new culverts.

Premier Doug Ford returned to Greenstone Nov. 13 to eyeball improvements made to Highway 584 where his government made funding commitments last summer to upgrade a vital road, add new commercial amenities, and contribute to resource industry-related skills training.

An Ontario government news release said seven culverts have been replaced this year on the highway between Geraldton and Nakina with three more on the way in 2025. Come the 2025-26 provincial fiscal year, 26 culverts will replaced on the highway with new pavement planned for 2027.
