For the first time since the heavy rain began two weeks ago, some roads in the RM of Ste. Anne are showing signs of fatigue.

Chief Administrative Officer Jennifer Blatz says she is impressed at how their municipal roads have fared under recent weather conditions but notes that Monday’s rainfall pushed some over the top.

“Unfortunately, with the amount of rain that we have received, our roads have taken a beating. We have water creeping up from the ditches, some of it is going onto the roads, some of it is going over the roads. We can’t stop the rain, all we can do is deal with what is left over when the water starts to recede.”
