We’ve heard from many people who are thrilled with the forthcoming expansion of Highway 417 to just past Renfrew.
There are some, however, who are ecstatic about just one interchange along the route.
Brian Hunt is Mayor of Greater Madawaska Township.
He says crossing 17 at Renfrew County Highway 508 will be quicker, and safer.
The Renfrew County Highway 508-McLean Drive interchange will be the first of four crossings planned along the new 22.5 kilometre extension of the four-lane highway.
