Minister Barry Petten announced that improving the Trans-Canada Highway could cost $6 billion. This statement follows a petition calling for the highway to be divided after a fatal head-on collision occurred earlier this year on the route between Arnold's Cove and Come by Chance. The petition argues that divided highways are safer and result in fewer fatalities.
