Grande Prairie to inspect traffic signal poles at 9 intersections
The City says crews will need only 15-20 minutes at each site, with brief lane closures expected while inspections take place.
The City of Grande Prairie will begin inspecting traffic signal poles at intersections across the city this week, with work tentatively scheduled between Tuesday, Aug. 25, and Sunday, Sept. 6. The timeline could shift depending on scheduling and operational needs.
Crews will check the condition of each pole and identify any maintenance work required. Each inspection is expected to take only 15 to 20 minutes, and traffic impacts should be brief, limited to temporary lane closures needed to set up traffic controls, complete the inspection, and clear the work zone.
Inspections are planned at nine intersections: 104 Avenue and 108 Street, 124 Avenue and 100 Street, 121 Avenue and 100 Street, 116 Avenue and 100 Street, 100 Avenue and 120 Street, 100 Avenue and 116 Street, 107 Avenue and 108 Street, 116 Avenue and 102 Street, and 94 Avenue and 100 Street.
The City is asking drivers to watch for crews and temporary traffic controls and to proceed with caution through active work zones during this period.
