Pot Hole Patching and Crack Sealing
Whitecourt experienced drastic temperature swings throughout the winter and spring seasons, which created ideal conditions for the development of potholes and cracks in the roadway. Pot hole patching throughout town has begun, and the annual crack sealing program will begin shortly.
Highway 43 and Highway 32 Construction Projects
Maintenance of Highway 43 and Highway 32 in Whitecourt are the responsibility of Alberta Transportation. Details on projects planned in our region throughout the summer can be found on https://511.alberta.ca.
