Motorists Encouraged To Use Caution and Be Patient

Manitoba Infrastructure reports traffic will be delayed along various sections of PTH 100 (the South Perimeter Highway) with the start of a construction project on Monday, Oct. 4 and continuing until approximately Oct. 21. 

Traffic will be reduced to one lane on PTH 100 and reopened to two lanes when crews are not on site. The speed limit will be reduced to 60 km/h while workers are present and 80 km/h if travelling on a milled surface and workers are not present. A safety flag crew will be present and will direct traffic as required. The project does not require any detours. The work will involve milling, which is grinding and removing the existing road surface before resurfacing with new asphalt pavement and then paving the surfaces.

    • milling Monday, Oct. 4 between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m.; and
