North Bay Infrastructure Projects Aim for Economic Growth and Job Creation
What happened
North Bay is pursuing infrastructure investments aimed at economic growth, including upgrades to the Airport Industrial Park and the Four Mile Lake road extension to Highway 11. The International Tactical Training Centre has moved to the city and is currently operating, having created 60 full-time jobs, many of which are local. Future expansion hinges on the allocation of capital budget over the next three years for Phase 2 and the final approval of the road extension by the next council, which must secure funding from other levels of government.

Why it matters
The projects are intended to drive economic growth and attract investment to the region. The successful completion of Phase 2 of the centre's operations is tied to the completion of the underground infrastructure and the road extension.
