While work begins on Hwy 3 twinning and Talbotville bypass, will Highbury north to London become a priority?

A top priority for MPP Rob Flack and the Doug Ford government is to protect Ontario, protect the economy, protect jobs and protect businesses.

Flack stressed that again Monday at the MP-MPP Luncheon inside the Elgin County Railway Museum.

Locally, noted Flack, is the importance of twinning Hwy. 3 in St. Thomas and the Talbotville bypass to handle traffic into and out of the PowerCo EV battery plant and other tenants in the Yarmouth Yards industrial park.

With the threat from south of the border, Flack suggested, “Mr. Trump is going to see in Ontario something that he is maybe not used to.”

And while preliminary work has begun on the twinning of Hwy. 3 through St. Thomas and the Talbotville bypass, there is another critical road project that needs addressing, according to MPP Rob Flack.
