Mink Lake Road received a significant face lift this summer, including a wider driving surface, wider shoulders added, hills flattened, and other features added, such as improvements to the access at Star Lake.
Remaining activities include final placement of the power poles, landscaping, and placement of a second lift of asphalt on the roadway, intersections, and approaches during summer 2024.
With an investment of approximately $4,500,000 in our road network, this project exemplifies Parkland County’s intention of maintaining quality infrastructure for our residents.
We would also like to express our gratitude to our residents and businesses in the area for their patience, and for the hard work of our Engineering team on this project.
The roadway is now in great shape and ready for public use for many years to come!

We would like to thank all the area residents and the school bus drivers for their patience during the construction this summer as well as to the crews who worked so hard to get the project to this point.
There is still minor work that will take place over the next couple of weeks as well as the relocation of power poles that is scheduled to be completed over the winter. Any impact on traffic will be minimal.
Project Schedule:
Construction will resume in 2024 to finish the second lift of paving, including paving of the approaches and remaining intersections plus other minor construction deficiencies. An updated schedule is planned for mid-April 2024 .Subscribe to this page to be notified by email of any updates.
Below is the preliminary schedule for the re-construction of Mink Lake Road.
Please note these dates are subject to change due to construction progress, weather, and environmental factors.

September 13, 2023 There have been challenging conditions during the wet weather periods and encourage use of alternative routes as much as possible. We expect significant improvements in the next number of days to the road allowing far better travel conditions on the east end and over the next 10 -14 days for the entire road.
