There are road construction projects planned for Highway 17 and Highway 129 in the Huron Shores area.

These projects are expected to take a couple of years to complete and will consist of grading and resurfacing of Highway 17 between Iron Bridge and Nestorville, and Highway 129 North from Thessalon to Highway 554. This will include replacement of culverts and maintenance to ditches and road shoulders.

The Municipality of Huron Shores has announced these upcoming road projects and indicated that there will be crews working on various roads throughout the area, aiming to improve road quality and safety. For the most current and detailed information, it would be best to stay tuned to the Municipality of Huron Shores official communications or contact them directly.

They will provide updates on the construction activities, including any changes to traffic patterns and alternate routes during the construction period. It's always a good idea to check these sources regularly for the latest information on road construction projects, especially if you're planning travel through the area.
