Road Construction

Road construction is necessary to maintain safe travel in any community. New roads, maintenance and upgrades are strategically planned according to specific construction specifications.

The Major Projects Map and Road Closures map (below) highlight current construction areas in Medicine Hat. Projects that are very long in duration, or affect a majority of travelling public, may be highlighted with their own project webpage. View the City Projects webpage for more info.

Doing work in a city roadway?

All work performed in city-owned roads and road right-of-ways requires accommodation for safe travel around the work area. The Temporary Traffic Control Manual outlines basic principles and minimum standards for traffic control for:

  • The safety of employees at the worksite
  • The safety of motorists and pedestrians within the traffic control zone
  • The protection of equipment used at the worksite
  • Minimizing traffic disruption around the worksite

The following form must be filled out four business days in advance of the expected work start date.
