The County Road 43 four-lane widening project to improve road safety, active transportation and spark regional economic growth is moving forward this year. The first phase, beginning this year, will be a new four-lane bridge. Roundabout installations, surface and pedestrian walkway work begins in 2023. It is one of the most significant projects being undertaken by the United Counties of Leeds and Grenville. It is anticipated that once the work has started, construction will require approximately 30 months to complete. Ongoing updates on the project will be found at www.Expand43.ca
