Vegreville Capital Works Road Construction Update Emily Mailhot Reporter – Vegreville News Advertiser After months of road construction, waiting for weather conditions to cooperate, and road closure, the 2019 Capital Works Project work on 45 Avenue from 49 Avenue to 47A Street; 49 Avenue from 45 Avenue to 47A
Street; and 47A Street from 45 Avenue to 49 Avenue is complete and the road is re-opened to traffic. The road has been closed since May 28, 2019, when Border Paving Ltd. (contractors) first began by digging out the old portion of the road, which was riddled with potholes
and debris. As of June 11, 47A street was also closed from 49th Avenue to 50th Avenue for construction. The previous closure was opened to traffic at that time to allow residents and businesses access to their property. Construction to all of the above-mentioned roadways are now com-
plete, and after a mad rush to be done in time for the Vegreville Country Fair, the roads are now open to traffic. This concludes the 2019 Capital Works Project for road construction and valve repair in the location listed on the Town of Vegreville website.
