As we witness the return of the snowy weather this week, the City of Lethbridge is reminding residents about the changes to how it manages snow and ice on the roads.

This winter, an additional 80 kms of residential roads have been added to the snow route network. Snow routes may be activated when there is heavy snowfall or accumulation with temporary parking restrictions along snow routes.

To help residents understand and navigate these changes, we’ve created a list of questions and answers to provide additional context. 

As the City’s Mandatory Recycling and Mandatory Organics program is getting ready to grade the first year of annual waste reports from the Lethbridge industrial, commercial and institutional (ICI) sector, one organization is already sitting at the top of the class.

The City of Lethbridge continues to support not-for-profit organizations with the 2024 Community Event Support Grant (CESG).

The program provides financial support for new and existing events that enhance the quality of life for the residents of Lethbridge, contribute to the culture of the community, create affordable entertainment and provide economic benefit to the City.

There will be a partial road closure in the 1200 block of 6 Avenue South beginning Thursday, January 4 so crews can complete patching work.

The partial road closure in the westbound lanes on Whoop-Up Drive near the University Drive exit, originally scheduled for Wednesday, January 3 to facilitate the replacement of light post, has been cancelled.

Property assessment notices were mailed today to all residential and commercial property owners. Property owners signed up for eNotices will receive their assessment notice by email at the email registered to their MyCity account. 

The City of Lethbridge has regularly conducted a community survey since 2005.  The survey focuses on understanding citizens’ opinions towards local issues, their quality of life, municipal services, and City priorities.

As cooler weather sets in, the City of Lethbridge is reminding residents to reduce the rollout of their green cart to every other week until the spring.
