Road Project Gets Funds

The town of Fort Frances will get provincial funding after all for a road, sewer and water improvement project completed this summer.

It's receiving more than $847-thousand to offset some of the costs of the work along along Second Street East and Mowat Avenue.

That project is coming in about $1.2 million.

The town was one of the first communities awarded money under a new fund designed for small and northern communities after being denied under a previous program earlier this year.
