The residents of Paradise Village have gained the support of their municipality in a bid to get a safer exit into the park.

On behalf of the residents of Paradise Village, the RM of Ste. Anne has made a request to the Minister of Highways for the installation of a left turn lane from the east, along the Trans Canada Hwy to Paradise Road.

The municipality feels that if a turn lane were installed, it would greatly improve public safety at the intersection, especially since Trans Canada Hwy sees such high traffic volumes.

The RM of Ste. Anne has also requested that the province come on board as a partner to complete the hard surfacing of Dawson Road at the west end of Richer.
