Oct 22, 2018 | 6:47 AM

CALGARY- A city park has been named to honour an MLA who died while helping a stranded motorist on the QE2 highway near Red Deer.

Manmeet Singh Bhullar Park in Taradale is five hectares in size and features a number of picnic tables for large gatherings.

Bhullar was struck by a semi that lost control on some ice on the QE2 in 2015.

Thousands of people attended Bhullar’s funeral.
