Due to the high clay content and the poor application of the culvert systems in the area, this case study will be able to address the issues currently ailing the road.
[2] A 9.7-kilometre (6.0 mi) long resurfacing project started July 7, 2000 at the junction of Highway 15 and continued south.
[6] Experimental strengthening techniques were undertaken, which used a rotomix of the existing asphalt oil surface and mulched flax straw.
This procedure underwent a series of tests examining whether an increase of the subgrade tensile strength occurred.
This experiment was undertaken 100 kilometres (62 mi) south of Saskatoon for three test sections of provincial Highway 19 near Strongfield.
Systems include granular soil strengthening and applications of different cement products, lime, various grades of fly ash, geotextiles, geogrids, natural and manufactured fibers, emulsified bitumen, tall oil, lignin, foamed bitumen, and synthetic ionic and cationic chemicals.
[10] Flowing Well Manor, an historic site of Canada, is along the highway about 16 kilometres (9.9 mi) north of Hodgeville.
In 1947, the Saskatchewan Minerals, the Sodium Sulfate plant opened at Chaplin to mine the abundant salt at the lake.
[17] As the highway leaves the park, it provides access to Mistusinne[18] while continuing to parallel the lake en route to Elbow.
