Gas Tax Money Used on Roads

The town of Fort Frances says it will use its share of federal gas tax revenue toward the cost of repairing roads and sidewalks along the Victoria, Nelson and Portage Avenue areas.

The town received 489-thousand dollars from the program this year.

The total cost of the reconstruction project is $5.4 million, with about two-million already being covered through provincial grants.

The project is on track to be complete by mid-September.
