The road network under this contract includes a number of key commuter and collector roads serving as local strategic routes interconnecting with the provincial highway networks, including the Highway 2 North-South transportation corridor.

Utilizing a fleet of trucks and graders, we perform snow removal on the hard-surfaced roads within subdivisions and hamlets through the County. Our commitment extends beyond winter services, encompassing summer maintenance work such as re-gravelling, drainage program, mowing, and pothole repairs to preserve Red Deer County’s infrastructure.
