May Newsletter 2025

Our communities are growing, and with that growth comes exciting improvements to roads, parks, and public spaces. To help you stay informed about what’s happening near you, I have worked with The City to launch the Capital Projects Map – an interactive tool that highlights upcoming and ongoing infrastructure projects.

Want to know if roadwork will affect your commute? Curious about new community spaces being built nearby? This tool provides details on project timelines, budgets, and current status, so you can see how these developments may impact and benefit your daily life.

Currently, the map is in its pilot phase, featuring select projects while The City fine-tunes its functionality. More updates are coming soon, making it even easier to track improvements across Calgary.

Check it out and explore what’s happening in your community today! Visit ​calgary.ca/capitalprojectsmap​ for more.

Preparing for Warmer Weather and Snow Melt

With warmer temperatures expected in Calgary, The City is preparing for the spring melt – and you can help too.

As ice melts during the day and refreezes at night, storm drains can become blocked. City crews are already working to inspect and thaw key drains using specialized steam equipment.

How You Can Help:

• Clear storm drains around your property when it’s safe to do so. Removing ice, snow, and debris helps prevent pooling water. Find storm drain locations at ​calgary.ca/stormdrains​ and learn more. 
• Report blocked drains to 311 if water is pooling or if the drain is covered in thick ice. Submitting a photo through the 311 app helps crews prioritize urgent concerns.
• Drive with care. Slushy roads can hide hazards like potholes, and water spray can reduce visibility for others.

As always, my office is open if you have any questions or concerns. You can reach us at ​Ward2@calgary.ca​. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
