The City of Grande Prairie is reminding drivers to exercise caution when passing through the area of 116th Avenue and 100th Street as paving operations are scheduled as part of the ongoing construction project near Westpointe.
According to the city, paving will commence on September 21st depending on the weather, and is scheduled for one day in hopes of mitigating traffic disruptions over the weekend.
During this time, minor delays should be expected, and truck drivers should consider alternate routes as a partial closure will affect the eastbound truck route on 116th Avenue. Trucks will also not be permitted eastbound on 116th Avenue to 100th Street northbound and must detour at the 108th Street and 100th Avenue intersection.
The city maintains that passenger vehicles will be accommodated through the intersection during the work.
The city remains on track to finish the project by the end of September.
