Here is some information regarding the Team Gushue highway and CBS Bypass extension for this thread:

The Telegram - Jan 24, 2012

Quote:
Construction crews have started work on the first phase of the highway corridor for the Team Gushue Highway extension.
The work will culminate in the creation of the highway bed from the newly-constructed overpass over Kenmount Road to Brookfield Road.
The $13 million contract for the job was awarded to Pennecon Heavy Civil and is expected to be finished in May 2013.
Work will involve some blasting. In a news release issued Tuesday, government said homeowners in the area will be contacted prior to blasting. Traffic slowdowns may occur on Blackmarsh Road and Topsail Road, but no road closures are expected.
The full extension of the highway is set to be completed in 2014.
I also found a link to a PDF mapping out the full expansion:

Here is another link showing the CBS Bypass extension (this map is not as clear as the Gushue PDF).
