Andrew Boitchenko - unacceptable!

It is too dangerous to stay in Drayton Valley.

Absolutely wrong so bad

We are happy to announce that our Crack Sealing program for 2024 is set to begin this weekend (weather permitting). Crack sealing is the process of placing an adhesive sealant into cracks on the pavement surface, preventing the infiltration of moisture and non-compressible materials into the pavement. This process will extend the lifespan of a road.

➡️ Sunday, June 30, 2024
Areas marked in yellow on the attached map are scheduled to start Sunday, June 30, 2024. These areas will have 'No Parking' signs placed on them Saturday June 29, 2024. Please help the crews complete their work by not parking on the streets during the hours of 7 a.m. - 7 p.m. Once work is completed in these areas, we will remove the signs and street parking can resume.

➡️ Monday July 1, 2024
Areas marked in blue on the attached map are scheduled to start Monday July 1, 2024. These areas will have 'No Parking' signs placed on them Sunday June 30, 2024. Please help the crews complete their work by not parking on the streets during the hours of 7 a.m. - 7 p.m. Once work is completed in these areas, we will remove the signs and street parking can resume.

Crack sealing in the areas marked on the map in pink will be completed after the yellow and blue areas are completed.

how about painting lines on the roads?

Will the town be painting lines on hwy 22 going thru ? It’s getting sketchy around 34 ave/twp 491

How about bringing a grader down the back alley behind the Bank of Montreal. The potholes keep getting worse every year. It would be much appreciated
