RM of McKillop - Excavation equipment sits idle at the proposed gravel pit site in the RM of McKillop. Stakes that appear to mark out the setbacks from the watercourse are in the ground, but there isn't any digging happening here.
The RM has not responded to repeated requests for updates on the project, which has run into roadblocks at the Council level.
The 10.9 million dollar Provincial project will see 19 KM's of notoriously bad Highway #220 paved starting from the #322 junction into Rowan's Ravine Provincial Park.
