The province is committing just over one million dollars to the reconstruction of Arthur Street East in Harriston.
Perth-Wellington MPP Randy Pettapiece made the announcement on Tuesday.
Town of Minto Mayor George Bridge said the Arthur Street East portion of Highway 89 is the last section of Connecting Links in Minto to be replaced. It bears a heavy traffic load for industries and businesses, and is part of the east-west corridor between Lake Huron and central Ontario.
Tenders will be awarded in early 2020 in time for next summer’s construction season.
"The Town of Minto has made good use of previous funds received under the Connecting Links Program for projects located in Harriston and Clifford," said Mayor Bridge. "We are pleased with the cooperation that we have received from Ministry of Transportation staff in the past and look forward to working with them again."
