Festive lighting installation underway

Now that Remembrance Day has concluded, the City of Medicine Hat has begun installing its festive light displays around the city.

The City’s Municipal Works department installs 354 festive lights every year to help celebrate the holiday season.

Ten high-traffic roads are chosen around Medicine Hat to balance these displays throughout the community:

• Downtown
• First Street SE
• Maple Avenue Bridge
• Eighth Street NE
• Division Avenue N near 20 Street NE
• Kingsway Avenue SE and South Railway Street SE
• Trans Canada Way SE
• Carry Drive SE
• Dunmore Road SE
• 13 Avenue SE

The schedule for installation at these ten locations is weather dependent.

Motorists are asked to please obey all traffic signs and posted speed limits and proceed with caution in areas where crews are installing these lights.
