The City of Grande Prairie has begun repairs and replacements of stormwater infrastructure across several neighbourhoods, including Northridge, Crystal Ridge, Crystal Lake Estates, Copperwood, Avondale, Countryside South, Pinnacle Ridge, and Westpointe.

The project focuses on removing and replacing damaged storm structures and pipes, as well as restoring affected roads, sidewalks, driveways, and landscaping.

The City of Grande Prairie is conducting essential culvert replacement work on Highway 670, necessitating a road closure between Range Road 55 and Range Road 54. The closure begins on August 7 at 5 a.m. and is expected to conclude by August 9 at 10 p.m.

This work is critical to address a culvert failure, which requires immediate attention to ensure the safety and functionality of the roadway. Local traffic will still have access to properties just past Range Road 55. Detours have been established, and electronic message boards have been installed to inform drivers.

The City of Grande Prairie begins construction on 68 Avenue this week.

The project includes milling the existing road surface, applying new pavement, spot replacing concrete curb and sidewalks, performing minor repairs to storm sewer infrastructure, re-establishing road line markings and crosswalk lines, and landscaping.

 Project Scope:

It says visitors should "exercise a high degree of caution" in the country and takes note of demonstrations and violent clashes between protesters and police over the past week. 

The travel advice cautions that even peaceful demonstrations can turn violent at any time and can deteriorate quickly.

North America is currently in a transitory period in terms of weather systems, with the timing of that transition likely to affect conditions for crops around the prairies.

That'll eventually change into a LaNinna system, which for our southern neighbours means that frosts could creep in early and disrupt harvest.

Environment Canada Meteorologist Natalie Hasell says that people in the Canadian prairies don't need to worry as much.

It was a packed house on Tuesday as family, friends and fellow musicians gathered to remember The Nelon family.

The Nelon family was on their way to join the Gaither Homecoming Cruise to Alaska when their plane crashed, claiming the lives of Jason and Kelly Nelon Clark, Amber and Nathan Kistler and their assistant, Melodi Hodges. The pilot, Larry Haynie and his wife, Melissa were also killed in the crash. 

The Calgary Airport Authority has said that significant water damage to part of its terminal during the supercell thunderstorm forced the B gates in the Domestic Terminal Building to be closed late Monday night.

It is unknown when the B gates will reopen, and the total cost of the storm damage is unknown. Officials said they are also unsure of the time required to complete repairs, and the water damage to the terminal area continues to be assessed.

"Season 4 has a lot of suffering," said Creator, Producer, Director, and Writer of the hit series, Dallas Jenkins in a video. "As hard as suffering can be, God's goodness is bigger," Amanda Jenkins replied.
