🚰 Stage 4 Water Restrictions Begin November 4

We’re entering the final steps of construction on the new Bearspaw South Feeder Main, a major infrastructure project that will help improve the reliability and resilience of our city's water system.

To safely connect the new feeder main to the existing water system, the current line must be temporarily shut down. As a result, Stage 4 outdoor water restrictions and indoor water conservation measures will be in effect starting November 4 for approximately four weeks.

During this time:

āŒ No outdoor water use permitted

āœ… Run dishwashers and laundry only when full

āœ… Flush toilets only when needed

āœ… Keep showers short. Aim for three minutes

These conservation efforts will help ensure enough water is available for essential needs, including firefighting, while crews complete this critical connection.

Once connected, crews will focus on bringing the new line into service before being fully operational later this year.

We appreciate all Calgarians and residents in Airdrie, Chestermere, Strathmore and Tsuut'ina Nation helping conserve water and supporting this important investment in our water infrastructure. šŸ’§

FRANK HAS BEEN FOUND!!! šŸ™


PLEASE KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR FRANK!! SEEN JUST BEFORE THE EXIT TO MEMORIAL DRIVE RUNNING DOWN DEERFOOT.


Coming home from the volleydome at 11 pm today and witnessed some crazy stuff happening on Deerfoot. Please drive safe and slow down when there are construction zones.

People didn't slow down and there were construction workers past 11 pm on the side of the road.

People must've sped up right after cause there was a pretty bad crash right after the zone. I was unable to stop safely and help but it spanned two lanes and drivers were crossing in between the crash.

Not even an exit later I see a car pulled over and a big dog runs out across all four lanes.

If this is your dog, I really didn't know how to help. I turned on my hazards and drove slow but I was scared of frightening him into middle lanes where cars were still speeding by. I hope he is safe and nothing happened to him. I teared up thinking what could happen to him on the way home. Please update me if you can.

Be safe everyone. Construction is crazy, but we need to drive safe so everyone gets home.

Eat/Drink Local Spring Rolls with Bean Sprouts

0 Upvotes

Where can I find spring rolls that are filled with stringy bean sprouts? I don’t want ones with green cabbage, carrots, or mushrooms. The ones I am remembering might have a bit of pork in them, but they are mostly veggies, and mostly bean sprouts. I think the Ginger Beef in Willow Park had these back in the 90s, but they have changed their recipe. The Chinese food places in the mall food courts may have also had them. I can’t find them anywhere anymore! All of the places I’ve tried are either a mix of pork and carrot, or are veggie spring rolls that are mostly cabbage and carrot. Sometimes they are glass noodles and mushroom. I just want the bean sprout kind! Please help me with my cravings!

Question Did anyone see the accident on 2 St SW & 23 Av SW today?

Post image
0 Upvotes

Howdy everyone! I was riding my bike south on the 2 St bikeway today when I saw multiple ambulances and police/fire trucks blocking around 23rd Av SW. Would have been around 1:15ish.

I'm wondering if anyone saw this accident happen, or have more details.

The City of Calgary incident dashboard has this as a 'traffic incident', but I didn't see any wrecked vehicles and instead saw someone being loaded into a stretcher.

I'm wondering if sometimes pedestrian or cyclist incidents accidentally get mischaraterized in the system, and therefore skew the city's data when they look at overall safety (the location in the database is wrong by two blocks, for example).

Anyhoo - I hope everyone involved was okay. Lots of not great news today.

Local Shopping/Services Urgent - help with relative’s untrained dogs

Post image
34 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m looking for options for an experienced dog walker/dog sitter who is available to urgently care for two large dogs in the NW (Brentwood) ASAP. Like literally tonight if possible.

The details: I got a call from Calgary EMS this afternoon that my nearly 75yo father had a fall in the driveway due to an unknown medical incident. He’s in the Rockyview ER and while he is lucid, they are keeping him overnight and he likely won’t be up to dog care and walks for a while at least. My dad has two dogs, Sasha (yellow) and Oban (black).

The problem is that the dogs are poorly trained. That’s honestly an understatement. They are 100-120lbs and they bark, jump, and make an absolute menace of themselves for literally any reason including that they haven’t seen you in two hours. They are not aggressive, but the bigger one can be reactive on walks as she was a rescue and the smaller one can be a little play-bitey because my dad thinks it’s funny. 🫩 I am not making excuses for my dad’s insistence that they are just friendly and trying to say hello, my siblings and I have given up on that argument even though it makes visiting an absolute nightmare. But although they are badly behaved, they still need to eat and my dad’s neighbor is not comfortable going in there alone. Nor are most of his friends because they all have osteoporosis and are also at risk with falls šŸ™ƒ

Does anyone have any recommendations for people who are able and equipped to handle dogs with behavioral issues at least enough to feed them while my dad is not up to it? Please let me know. Ideally I’d prefer something formal through Rover or someone with a business so I don’t get scammed on the worst day of my year so far, but I will consider all options. I grew up in Calgary but I can’t travel at the moment and I can’t think of any of my old friends who could do this. My dad is a bad dog owner but he loves those dogs to absolute pieces and is incredibly worried about them. And I love my dad and am incredibly worried about him, but this is all I can do right now.

Municipal Affairs Police Statement on Bus Incident

They’ve provided more details on the incident. The police officer was injured while running over to attend the fire, and the explosion occurred. They aren’t commenting on the exact cause and how the events occurred specifically as the traffic investigators are working on piecing everything together. 8 vehicles were involved, and it seems as though one bus collided with multiple vehicles before hitting a stationary bus. Hazmat and approximately 7 units responded. 19 injured- 10 taken to hospital via ambulance, 1 life threatening, and 3 people deceased on scene.

Sequence of events: bus hit a white vehicle, which hit a black vehicle, which then hit the cube van. From there the bus hit the stationary bus at the bus stop which caught fire, before one of the busses hit two more cars across the road.

Thoughts and prayers to everyone affected

With today’s events, I wanted to post the Calgary Police Service’s Victim Assistance Support Team information. If you or someone you know witnessed the crash, or any other crash, please reach out for support. I’m not going to wax on the benefits of mental health supports (I’m sure we’re all aware), but I will say that burying things will only make it worse in the long run.

My thoughts go out to anyone who was impacted by the tragedy

Seeking Advice Car insurance

0 Upvotes

My car insurance went up 69 dollars a month simply because I moved from Sage Hill NW to the border of Bowness & Montgomery NW.

I am with co operators and called today to discuss a lower rate, however they asked if I had moved and when I provided my postal code they told me that this would increase my rate. It went from 338 to 407 per month.

Any advice on where or how to find lower car insurance?
