RIRG Funding
The RM is excited to announce that we are one of 30 RM’s that will receive funding through the Rural Integrated Roads for Growth Program (RIRG) for our application that was submitted in June 2022. The program is a partnership between the Government of Saskatchewan and Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities (SARM) to provide municipal funding to help improve rural infrastructure.
The RIRG funding is contributing $500,000 for the upgrade/rebuild of the section of road, in the picture below, located at E10/03-35-07 & N33/34-35-07 & E32/29/20-34-07. The RM is very excited for this project to commence in 2024.
