Medicine Hat – Spencer Street SE, between the intersection at Dunmore Road SE/Kingsway Avenue SE and the curve towards Allowance Avenue SE, will be temporarily reduced to one lane for eastbound traffic on Wednesday, Dec. 14 and Thursday, Dec. 15.

Work to abandon gas wells on the property of the former ADM Agri-Industries Company (ADM) flour mill will take place in the new year. Preparation work, including excavation near the roadway, is taking place this week to expose the well casing and install a well head.

A perimeter fence is in place around the work area and will remain until the work is complete in early 2023.

Motorists are reminded to obey construction signage and use caution near the work zone.
