Sewer Study Planned

Improving local road and the infrastructure continues to be a focus for the town of Fort Frances.

Councillor Paul Ryan says the town is about to begin a study that identifies areas where ground water is infiltrating the sewer system and cause increased pressure on the treatment plant.

"It's very important that we do this," says Ryan. "It should have been done years ago so we can develop a plan to where to go first and where to go second. Get the hot spots first."

The town also has a long-term plan in place to improve local roads.
