Road maintenance program

MR. BUTLER: Thank
you, Mr. Speaker.
I just want to take a few moments to, I guess, present
– I had to go through the files today to find my last
petition, hopefully, of this session. I will have to get
more ready in the fall.
Mr. Speaker, it has to do
with the road maintenance program. We hear from time to
time about the depots that we are closing. Hopefully,
over the summer months, Mr. Speaker - and this has
nothing to do with the Capital Works Program that has
been announced by the minister, it is just a road
maintenance program. Many people in different areas are
saying that they believe that by those depots being
closed they do not get the same service in the
summertime in getting the road maintenance done.
I just want to say, Mr.
Speaker, to the minister, that there are quite a few
areas, not only in my district but throughout the
Province, where road maintenance has to be done. All I
am saying to the minister is, over the summer months
keep your hand upon the throttle, both eyes upon the
road and hopefully we will see that the maintenance that
needs to be done will be considered and hopefully done
to everyone’s satisfaction.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. |
