[ARCHIVED] News Release: Completion of the G3 Resource Road

News Release Completion of the G3 Resource Road

The County of Wetaskiwin has completed upgrades to the G3 Resource Road on Township Road 460 between Highway 2A and Range Road 240, and north on Range Road 240 to Highway 613. This road network was upgraded to support the increased traffic and usage created by the newly established G3 Grain Terminal.  

The G3 Road upgrade was a two-year project that involved widening, upgrading the base of the road and paving. The work also involved a significant upgrade to the intersection of Highway 613 and Range Road 240. This new road will now be able to handle significant truck traffic and will last for an estimated 25 years before needing additional upgrades.  

G3 Road Final 2The total cost of this project was 7.1 million dollars and was funded 100% by grants provided from the Government of Alberta which included the Resource Road Program and the Municipal Sustainability Initiative. G3 Canada also supported this project by upgrading the intersection of Highway 2A and Township Road 460 and upgrades to Township Road 460 from Highway 2A to the entrance of their facility.

 “The County is pleased we were successful in receiving significant grant funding to complete this project,” stated Reeve Josh Bishop. “The G3 Grain Terminal not only supports our agricultural community, but it is also a significant development within our Region.”
