Harvest work will soon be in full swing, which means Lacombe County roads and highways will see increased farm traffic.
Lacombe County reminds travellers to keep safety at the forefront during fall harvest operations, whether you’re driving a van, pulling a camping trailer, or behind the wheel of a combine or semi-truck. Road safety is a major concern during harvest season.
Slow-moving farm equipment will be on roads already busy with summer travellers and commuters alike, increasing the need for everyone to drive safely and considerately.
“Lacombe County is an agricultural community, as well as a tourist destination and high-traffic corridor between several major centres,” said Lacombe County Reeve Barb Shepherd. “With that in mind, road courtesy is important no matter where you are driving, and we ask everyone to practice patience on local roads – whether you’re driving in Lacombe County or venturing elsewhere in the province.”
