Construction season officially underway in the County of Grande Prairie

It’s going to be a busy summer as construction season ramps up across the County of Grande Prairie. 

Around $33 million is being invested in road and bridge projects across the county in response to feedback from residents who identified roads as a top priority during the 2023 Citizen Satisfaction Survey conducted by the county. 

The bold move to dedicate 30 per cent of the county’s $110 million capital budget will also see the wrapping up of carry-over projects from recent years, while moving forward with new projects. 

Projects scheduled for 2024 include more than 15 kilometres of road surface work, along with bridge replacement, and even road re-construction projects. 

Numerous projects are planned for the 2024 season including paving upgrades to Range Road 100 from Highway 667 to Highway 43, pavement overlay projects on Range Roads and Township Roads around the county, and bridge construction on Range Road 65 between Highway 59 and Township Road 742, Range Road 64 between Highway 59 and Township Road 742, Range Road 41 South of Highway 671, Range Road 74 between Highway 43 and Township Road 712.
