Public Works Manager Report
Smoky Lake
Public Works Department had a very challenging 2009 with the very dry
conditions throughout the summer. The maintenance crew had the difficult
task of keeping the roads free of washboard conditions and for the most
part, kept the problem to a minimum.
As in 2008, Public Works is continuing with the clearing of the
intersections for better site lines, which provide for safer
driving conditions. The Hydro-Axe Program for clearing right-of-ways
will change in 2010, having a full-time crew working throughout the
year, with the exception of where excessive snow amounts prohibit
further clearing.
We will continue to provide dust control on heavily traveled roads with
either oil, treatment or MG-30. As well, Smoky Lake County continues to
provide private dust control at a cost outlined further in this
booklet. The charts following will outline the 2010 scheduled projects.
Our maintenance and culvert crews are gaining ground on the various
drainage problems throughout the County. I am confident if we continue
with this Program, the County will be able to minimize future flooding
and wash-outs.
We are continuing with our Rock Excavation Program as well as the annual
Gravel Crushing at White Earth Pit.
Once again, thanks to the County Ratepayers for their patience during
last years time of drought. Our very capable staff continues to strive
to provide the best service possible to enable safe and comfortable
travel throughout the year.
