The construction of the new RCMP detachment is cruising along on schedule, according to Summit Brooke Construction (SBC) site superintendent Dan Norris.

“We have poured the concrete footings for the north retaining wall that’s going in between the [detachment] and the [Regency] Chrysler dealership, and we will start construction of that retaining wall any day now, as weather permits.”

Crews have been working steadily on back-filling the underside of the building, Norris explains, and he currently expects to be ready to pour the main foundation footings by Friday (Feb. 28).

“We are on schedule and on track. It is all weather permitting, of course, but we are definitely proceeding forward.”
