The R.M. of Stanley says it will take several weeks to repair all of the damaged roads in the municipality, caused by this week's overland flooding.
In an update sent to PembinaValleyOnline Thursday afternoon, the Municipality said public works crews have started repairs to the more heavily and critically damaged areas. However, due to the extent of damage, officials say it will take weeks to get the work done, pending good weather.
