Traffic and Utilities

As recovery efforts progress, services are being actively restored. However, the wildfire has affected infrastructure within the townsite, and recovery activities may lead to temporary service interruptions. We will continue to provide updates in the categories below.

September 13 - 20, 2024 - Temporary Road Closure on Connaught Drive

Starting Friday, September 13, Connaught Drive will be closed approximately 50 meters north and south of the Bonhomme Street intersection to accommodate critical utility work related to wildfire recovery. The closure will remain in effect until September 20, 2024, with work occurring from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM daily. 

  • Reason for Closure: Borehole drilling for the restoration of electrical lines. 
  • Traffic Impact: Lane closure only; no detour required. 
  • Pedestrian Safety: The work zone will be fenced off to ensure pedestrian safety, and signage will be in place to direct traffic. 
  • Emergency Access: Emergency vehicles will be given priority and allowed to pass through the work zone.
