Construction on the Gardiner Expressway is expected to be finished by the end of the month, over a year ahead of the original schedule, the Ministry of Transportation has told CBC News. It could be completed as early as Oct. 27, ministry spokesperson Dakota Brasier said Friday. The new expected completion date comes after the province spent $73 million this year to speed up the project, including allowing work around the clock.

"We know that it's going to be hard, but we need to get this work done," said Jennifer Graham Harkness, the city's chief engineer and executive director for engineering and construction services.
