A water main break last summer in Fort St. John was the impetus for a major improvement: revitalizing downtown’s 100 Street. Water and sewer upgrades are just one aspect of this major transportation, shopping and visitor corridor getting a lift: it aims to become friendlier and safer for all users, with development options that include connection to green spaces, boosting local businesses, streetside patios and more. This past summer a design consultation process began, with construction and utility upgrades sited to begin in 2020. Follow the evolution at letstalk.fortstjohn.ca/engage/100-street.
