SHIPPAGAN, N.B. – Transportation Minister Paul Robichaud has committed the province to spending $90 million over five years on highway links across northern New Brunswick.

Robichaud announced in Shippagan that the province wants another $90 million from the federal government to improve Routes 11 and 17 to create an arterial highway arching across the top of the province from Miramichi to St-Leonard.

Robichaud released the Route 11 and Route 17 Needs Study prepared by the firms Boissonnault McGraw and Roy Consultants Group.

The Department of Transportation commissioned this study last year.
