Despite council having to change its scope, asphalt patching work is set for the Town of Antigonish this fall.
After budgeting around $200,000 for asphalt patching for various streets, Antigonish Town Council got a tender back with a price tag of around $400,000. On Monday night, council voted to stick to its budget and concentrate on needed work on Main and Hawthorne Streets and a few smaller areas.
Mayor Sean Cameron said the town’s engineer will contact the company doing the work, with the hope of the patching work starting within a few weeks.
