Highway Extension Demanded for North Wellington Roads
Wellington North MP Jolin Root urged the legislature to extend provincial highways into North Wellington and Dufferin. He noted 1937 builds stopped at county borders leaving routes like 25 from Burlington to Acton, 19 from Strathroy to Brace, 9 from Waterloo to Harriston, and 23 from Kitchener to Palmerston ending at borders. He pressed the government to fix the pavement gap and ease local taxation.
