Grande Prairie starts repairs on 14 traffic lights this fall
City crews began the annual Traffic Signal Maintenance Program on Sept. 13, targeting intersections across two phases of work.
Why it matters
Drivers in Grande Prairie should expect lane closures and delays at 14 intersections through the fall as crews complete the repairs.
The City of Grande Prairie has started its 2026 Traffic Signal Maintenance Program, with crews beginning repairs on Sunday, Sept. 13. Fourteen traffic lights across the city are scheduled for work, split into two phases covering intersections such as 115 Avenue/99 Street, 99 Street/Prairie Mall, and 68 Avenue/Resources Road.
Crews will carry out signal pole replacements, cabinet replacements and full rehabilitation of signal infrastructure at each site. Temporary traffic controls will be in place while work is underway.
The city says some repairs will require temporary lane closures, but traffic will continue to flow in both directions at affected intersections. Work is being scheduled outside peak traffic hours to minimize delays for drivers.
The maintenance program is expected to be completed by November, weather permitting.
