Roadwork and Construction

The Hett Creek Trail bridge was heavily damaged during the November 2024 windstorm and, following an engineering assessment, the bridge remains closed. Trail users can detour via Wilkes Creek Trail. In addition to providing a pedestrian pathway, this bridge also supports a sewer pipe attached underneath. The City has hired a structural engineering firm experienced in bridge construction and stabilization to design the repairs. The design work is now more than halfway complete.

Construction is now expected to begin in August 2026, when work in the creek area is permitted and conditions are suitable for protecting fish and wildlife. View a map of the detour at portmoody.ca/trails

Construction on the new community fieldhouse is moving forward with completion anticipated for early Fall 2027. Please note the following impacts to the parking lot during construction:

Parking changes: Fencing will be installed around the project area which will block access to the mid‑section parking stalls. Vehicles will be able to enter the parking lot from both the east and west entrances, but travel through the work area will not be possible. Parking stalls will be designated for turnaround spaces. Please note that manoeuvring space will be tight.

EV chargers: Three out of nine EV chargers will remain available while the other six will be out of service. The three chargers will be available for use 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
