Attn: Road Users and Residents
Due to a recent structural assessment, the bridge (BF 71489) on Range Road 24, just north of Township Road 370, has been closed immediately for safety reasons. An inspection found a significant structural issue—a shearing timber cap—which has worsened due to the hauling of silage and other misuse of the bridge over its 10-tonne weight restriction. This poses a serious risk to all road users.
We have a project scheduled for this year to repair the bridge and are working to complete it as quickly as possible. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience as we work to restore safe access.
If you have any questions, please contact us.
Sincerely,
Martin Biro
Operations Manager Public Works

M.D. OF PROVOST NO.52
The M.D. of Provost No. 52 will begin roadside spraying along municipal road allowances to control noxious weeds, restricted weeds and re-growth of brush. Blanket Spraying will be in Divisions 4 and 6. Spot Spraying will occur throughout the M.D. all summer. Herbicides being used are Clearview, Gateway, 2,4-D, Aspect, and Garlon XRT as well as Navius and Esplanade. Spraying will begin as soon as possible.
For grazing or haying restrictions contact your Agricultural Fieldman.
The M.D. of Provost will not be spraying in front of farm sites, shelterbelts or environmentally sensitive locations.
Any ratepayer/renter that does not want certain roadsides sprayed, please submit a written request to Tyler Lawrason at the Municipal District Office at Box 300, Provost, Alberta, T0B 3S0. Requests submitted last year are no longer valid and must be re- submitted for this year. Spraying requests must be received as soon as possible to ensure we can attempt to honour your request.
Please note that if a roadside is not sprayed by request of a ratepayer/renter that the weed/brush control for that particular road will become the responsibility of that ratepayer/renter.
