In response to the flooding that occurred over the weekend, the City of Dawson Creek has arranged for free sandbags for local citizens in need. 

This is through Reg Norman Trucking at 250.782.2778. 

Contractors are attempting to collect garbage where feasible. If your collection has been missed, residents can notify the City at 250-784-3600 or through the City app. 

Current road closures due to flooding: 

  • 17th Street is currently closed between 100th Avenue and 108th Avenue 
  • 102nd Avenue is closed between 16th and 17th Street. 
  • 108th Avenue is closed between Poplar Crescent and Chilton Subdivision due to water crossing the road. 

These areas will remain closed until the water recedes and travel is safe again.  

The City urges residents to use caution and stay safe. 

The City has also provided some links to resources on remediation options, use of personal protective equipment and more. Find them HERE.
