Work to irrigation system on 13th Avenue median set to begin

Medicine Hat – Starting Sept. 11, the City will begin work to the irrigation system adjacent to 13th Avenue SE, specifically the east median between 22 Street SE and 28 Street SE.

The upgrade aims to incorporate water-saving techniques while improving the area's aesthetic appeal. Completion of this project is anticipated for October 2023. See map for the full extent of the project.

The service lane near the M & M Food Market on 13th Avenue SE will be temporarily closed to residential traffic for the duration of the construction. Parking will not be permitted on either side of the road during this time. The service lane will be narrowed to a single lane, which will be sectioned off for construction activities but maintained throughout the project's duration. While the main traffic lane will remain open, residents are reminded to use caution near the work zones and obey all construction signage and personnel.

The City of Medicine Hat extends its gratitude to residents for their patience and understanding as we carry out these essential upgrades.
