Plans are coming together for a July 1 party!

The City of Lethbridge and Lethbridge & District Exhibition are gearing up for a full day of Canada Day celebrations, with food trucks and main stage entertainment now confirmed.

Effective immediately and until further notice, a fire ban is in place on all open fires within the City of Lethbridge’s River Valley. 

Lethbridge Fire and Emergency Services responded to reports of a vehicle fire behind a commercial property in the 1400 block of 2 Avenue South at approximately 4:30 a.m. on Sunday, May 25.

With the warmer weather all around us, and everything greening up nicely, we wanted to take this opportunity to provide a water update.

Commuters in Lethbridge will notice some new traffic calming features this spring. Traffic calming curbs and digital speed feedback signs have been installed on selected roadways throughout the city to help reduce driving speeds.

Two speed feedback signs will be installed on Whoop-Up Drive on Friday, May 23, 2025. Commuters can expect partial lane closures. 

As the weather heats up, road construction season follows suit.  

The City of Lethbridge’s Transportation Operations department has been completing minor road repairs since mid-April. With outdoor temperatures warming up, those efforts are moving into high gear. 

Due to the possibility of a strike at Canada Post, Lethbridge residents are encouraged to register for e-billing for their utility bills. This will ensure residents receive their bills on time, should there be a disruption in mail delivery. 

We have reached the Victoria Day May Long Weekend! That of course means the unofficial start to summer – and rain in the forecast.

The River Valley Fire Ban in Lethbridge has been lifted, effective immediately. Recent changes in weather conditions, including higher humidity levels, have reduced the fire risk in this area.
