The discovery of a sinkhole near the Arc Bark Park has caused the closure of a roadway. 

The hole was discovered on 49th Avenue Thursday evening, forcing the road to be closed and barricaded between Arc Bark Park and the day use park.  

Town officials say a thorough assessment is being done & appropriate mitigation will be undertaken.  

Detour signage has been posted and will remain until repairs are completed.

Crews will commence repairs Friday morning and are expected to continue throughout the weekend.
