There's a new highway entrance to Timmins. Highway 101 East has been rebuilt near Porcupine to accommodate the PJV Goldcorp mining operations. More gold was discovered under the old section of Highway 101 and part of Three Nations Lake. So the highway and part of the lake are being "moved" so a new pit can be blasted. Life in a gold mining town is always interesting eh. The new section of highway is excellent, but there will be construction delays for a few weeks. Drive safely.
