No chance of them working on the highways at night around here. That idea was brought up in the news a few weeks ago during the paving of the ORR. Construction companies said it would almost double their costs so they would not even consider it.
But lights should be a high priority. But seeing how it is a federal highway, maintained by the provincial government, it realistically won't happen unless there is a large public outcry for it to happen. (Correct me if I'm wrong, but am I right in saying that the city of St. John's doesn't own or maintain the ORR?)
