There is an environmental perspective to the project, as well. “Improving the free-flow of traffic through the region and building the infrastructure to be more resilient to climate change-related extreme weather events are two ways that the Highway 91/17 and Deltaport Way upgrades fit into the ministry’s Goods Movement Strategy, to make goods movement smarter, cleaner, and more competitive,” says Drummond. Drummond adds that as the project nears completion, his team is already seeing the benefits to residents. “I took on the role of Executive Project Director last fall, and it has been my privilege to work with the team to ensure the Project is implemented in a matter that is safe, efficient, on time and budget, and serves the community as the Ministry intended—creating a more reliable transportation network in Delta for all.” “As we approach total completion this spring, it’s rewarding to see the improvements and infrastructure already making a difference in people’s lives.” For more information, please visit: www2.gov.bc.ca Photo Credit - B.C.
