A number of significant crashes and closures along Highway 17 across Renfrew County in the last week has renewed calls for expansion and safety.
A head on crash Aug. 31 at Calabogie Road required an Ornge Air Ambulance to be called in, and a crash on Sept. 1 near Mattawa also required significant detours along Highway 17.
"We have a lot of different things going on. It's almost back to school, a lot of people are out right now, extra traffic, extra construction, people want to get places really fast and sometimes aren't taking the time they need to." "From where it ends in Arnprior, underneath the new overpass at Calabogie Road and through to Bruce Street," outlines Emon, when asked about the expansion to four lanes.
