Drainage or flooding concerns
Visit our drainage and flood management page to learn who to contact to report a concern.
Reduce loads. Protect our roads.
We ask that heavy vehicles reduce axle weight to 75 per cent whenever possible.
Recent heavy rainfall has softened road bases throughout the County, making them more vulnerable to cracking under heavy commercial loads.
Significant rainfall in June 2026 caused widespread localized flooding across Strathcona County. This has resulted in several road closures in our community.
Our crews are actively working to assess, repair and reopen impacted roads.
Most roads impacted by flooding will only be closed for only a few days or weeks. Some roads require more significant repairs and will be closed for a longer period.

Extended road closures
The below locations had more significant damage during June’s rainfall event; therefore, extended road closures are required. Both roads are expected to reopen in the fall of 2026.
Range Road 232 between Township Roads 534 and 535
Township Road 534 between Range Road 231 and Highway 21
Range Road 232 between Township Roads 534 and 535
A full road closure is in effect on Range Road 232 north of Township 534 at Old Man Creek due to erosion at the bridge culvert. For everyone’s safety, pedestrian and cyclists should avoid the Trans Canada Trail adjacent to Range Road 232 while the road is closed. Traffic is being detoured to Range Road 231 until further notice. Motorists may travel north to Township Road 535 or south to Township Road 534.
Township Road 534 between Range Road 231 and Highway 21
A full road closure is in effect on Township Road 534 between Range Road 231 and Highway 21 for a culvert and road failure repair. The bridge culvert washed out due to high water levels in Old Man Creek, causing a collapse of the roadway. Traffic is being detoured to Range Road 231 until further notice. Motorists may travel north to Township Road 540 or south to Highway 16.

All expected reopen timelines are tentative and subject to change. Delays may be due to weather or other project dependencies.
