Road work in the Town of High River will be starting up on Wednesday, May 9.

The Town's replacing the sanitary sewer main and water main on 4th Avenue S.E. between 1st Street S.E. and 3rd Street S.E. and installing a storm sewer main on 4th Avenue S.E.

It will last from six to eight weeks as part of the Town of High River’s ongoing infrastructure replacement program.

This project will also include the replacement of sewer and water services to the property line as well as the road surface, various sections of curb, gutter and sidewalk.

Water and sanitary services will not be affected, with the exception of a short period of time when service lines are re-established to the new mains.

Access to the front entrances of the properties on 4th Avenue S.E. will not be available while the road surface is being replaced. The Town and PME Inc. ask that residents use their back lane access where possible.

Garbage collection will not be affected and garbage bins/carts can be placed as normal.

Red Tail Rise work.

As well construction has started and will continue for one week to connect a waterline to the new Red Tail Rise development on 10 street S.E. south of the town limit.

The work will require some construction adjacent to the roadway and may involve some partial lane closures.

Red Tail Rise is a new community located on in the MD of Foothills on 104th Street, Town road 10th Street S.E.

This area is currently located in the MD of Foothills but is proposed to be annexed by the Town of High River.

The first phase is under development which includes 30 estate lots, similar to those previously located in Beachwood.
