Altona's Southwest Drainage Project "finally a go", says Public Works Manager

Crews have arrived and are working on the Town of Altona's Southwest Drainage Project. 
    
"It's finally a go," said Public Works Manager, Clint Derksen.

The plan is to dig out the ditch along Highway 201 from Buffalo Creek, east to Road 5W this week. 

Should weather and time allow, Derksen says crews could dig all the way to 4th Street SW, noting there are enough culverts on hand to make it happen. 

With a deeper ditch and new culverts, the intent is that this project will lead to improved drainage in the southwest corner of town.
