Road Painting while the painting's Good!

With a two day weather window at hand, crews from the city's contract painters have been travelling the city these last two days, trying to put down as much paint as possible before the next weather system shuts them down.

The topic of the road marking plans came up as part of Monday's City Council Session, with Councillor Barry Cunningham raising the topic with the City of Prince Rupert's Operations Director Richard Pucci.

"I guess the lines that weren't painted before the onslaught of fall and winter, won't get painted in the spring now, because there's quite a few roads in town with no lines. Is there any timeline when that will be done"

As part of his reply to the Councillor's Questions, Mr. Pucci outline the path to paint for this week.

"The line painting crew will be back here, there's a weather window coming up in the next couple of days. I've been informed that they're going to come in and focus mostly on all of the School Zone areas, to ensure that those ones are fresh. And then if there is time and weather windows that they will complete other lineage around town. But we've asked them to focus immediately on all the School Zone areas. Unfortunately again some of the times that they were available weren't the best times for us
