FoxCreek Community Access Roads Grated

Today, 17-Jun-2015, both access roads to the FoxCreek community – Old Kettle Rd from Mill Village to the Fox Creek turnaround
Medway Harbour Rd, from Hwy 331 to the turnaround
have been scraped.

While the roads look nice and smooth, they are not – smooth.
Be extra careful for the time being and avoid too sharp and pointy gravel where possible.

Maximum 50

Remember, the speed limit on Old Kettle Rd and Medway Harbour Dr. is 50km/h.

However in the interest of road maintenance please keep to 30km/h on all gravel roads within the FoxCreek community.

This has the additional benefit of less wear & tear on your car’s tires and under body. Not to mention – on dry days – less kicked up dust.
