flag Greater Sudbury redirects $21.87M in unspent road funds to boost repairs on key streets using a permanent 1.5% levy.

flag The City of Greater Sudbury has redirected $21.87 million in unspent road funds toward immediate repairs, using a new executive review to identify surplus money. flag The city will increase annual spending on targeted asphalt patches—known as “shave-and-pave” work—from $3 million to $10 million, funded by a permanent 1.5% capital levy approved in 2023. flag Projects will focus on roads like Paris Street, Notre Dame Avenue, and sections of MR 55 and MR 80, aiming to extend pavement life and improve conditions without full reconstruction. flag Officials say this shift supports a long-term strategy to manage aging infrastructure across over 3,600 lane kilometers of roads, with a full capital budget review expected by the end of the second quarter.
