The City of Grande Prairie’s 2020 Trail Rehabilitation Program continues on Wednesday, September 23 in three locations. Crews will:

  • remove the asphalt trail along Crystal Lake Drive between 91B Street and Cygnet Boulevard and replace it with a concrete sidewalk.  
  • install an asphalt overlay on the existing trail north of 68 Avenue between 100 Street and Poplar Drive.
  • install a new trail north of 68 Avenue, east of the Mission Estates Plaza.

The specified trails will be closed to the public until all work is completed, all construction zones will be properly signed and barricaded.

The City would like to remind the public to watch for equipment and workers that may be present in the construction area. Please obey all signage and proceed with caution.

Construction at all three sites is expected to be complete by October 15, 2020.
