2023 Capital Construction Projects
Project Name | Description | Status | Additional Information |
| 2023 Airport Runway & Taxiway Maintenance | This project includes repairing approximately 20 kilometres of transverse and longitudinal cracks in the asphalt runway and taxiway.

Addressing the concern will minimize further degeneration and extend the lifespan of both the taxiway and runway and improve the safety and operations of Miller Airport. This project is funded in part by the Government of Saskatchewan's Community Airport Partnership (CAP) program. | Complete! | Community Airports Receive Another Lift | News and Media | Government of Saskatchewan |

| Maude Burke Park Redesign Project | Maude Burke Park is an urban park located on the south side of Melfort on Broadway Avenue South. This park and playground is a very popular community park that needs to be updated in order to keep meeting community needs.
