Gary Carr Regional Chair During construction season, Drive SAFE Halton Region is investing more than $3 billion over the next 10 years as we maintain and expand road, water and wastewater infrastructure to meet current and future needs. With more vehicles on our roads, we're also committed to improving road safety so that Halton can remain the safest place to live, work, raise a family and retire. As the weather improves, you'll notice more construction crews on our roads. Please make the summer safe for everyone by reducing your speed in construction zones and giving our crews the space they need to do their job. Visit us at www.halton.ca/ construction for construction details or www.halton.ca/driveSAFE to learn about road safety in Halton.
