FlatIron Constructors Canada has been awarded a $54.5-million contract for the Keating flyover project on Highway 17, with work to begin within weeks and completion in the spring of 2025, the Transportation Ministry announced Monday.
The northbound left-hand turn across oncoming highway traffic onto Keating Cross Road has been a safety concern for years. The $76.8-million project includes an overpass for highway traffic turning left onto Keating Cross, a realigned southbound on-ramp to Victoria, a wider Keating Cross Road and additional sidewalks, as well as the installation of bus-on-shoulder facilities to support future rapid transit on the Pat Bay Highway.
The project will be funded through a provincial contribution of $57.6 million, along with $16.7 million from the federal government through the New Building Canada Fund. The District of Central Saanich is providing $2.5 million. Central Saanich Mayor Ryan Windsor said he looks forward to the start of construction and will work with the province on ensuring minimal disruption to residents of the peninsula while work is underway.For more on the South Island Transportation Strategy, go to https://gov.bc.ca/southislandtransportationstrategy
