The Building of the Skerryvore Road
- This is a collection of photos taken during the construction of the Skerryvore Road. Captions on all photos will give you an idea of where the photos were taken. The Skerryvore Road was built in 1997 after more than 16 years of conflict over the road going through the Shawanaga Native Reserve. The Natives had closed the road for one winter and the Province had negotiated a temporary use of the native road until late April of 1997. The contractor was under the gun to complete the road so that residents could get access to their cottages and homes. There was no road access to Skerryvore after the agreement expired. People were able to come into Skerryvore using the Chippewa cruise ship until the road opened on June 27, 1997. The photos were taken by Tom Arnold and access to the road during construction was via snowmobile, ATV or walking into the various locations.
