URGENT MESSAGE FROM THE FLOOD OFFICE

We want to remind everyone of the risks associated with entering construction work sites.

Recently, we had a near-miss incident involving a citizen on one of our project sites. This incident highlights the potential dangers that unauthorized access to construction sites can pose. Construction sites are hazardous areas, and unauthorized entry can result in serious injury or harm to oneself and others.

The Town of Drumheller and its contractors prioritize safety and have implemented strict safety protocols to ensure the well-being of workers and visitors on the site. These safety measures include the use of safety gear, installation of barricades, and prominent warning signs.

We ask all residents to respect and adhere to these safety protocols. Unauthorized entry into the construction site without proper authorization is strictly prohibited. By doing so, you not only put yourself at risk but also jeopardize the safety of others.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding the Flood Mitigation Project or the safety protocols in place, please feel free to contact us at floodreadiness@drumheller.ca. Your safety is our utmost priority, and we appreciate your cooperation in ensuring a secure work environment for everyone involved.
