## Resource

Fort McMurray residents are fed up with Highway 63’s deadly potholes, prompting dozens to take matters into their own hands—shovels in hand, they’re fixing the road themselves after months of ignored repairs and thousands in vehicle damage. Local contractors are donating gear, officials are speaking out, and even the province’s transportation minister is listening. With the mayor pushing for local control of an 18-kilometer stretch and the minister hinting at a possible shift in management, this could be the start of a major change for one of Alberta’s most vital highways.
