Box Springs, city agree to deal to see problem road fixed
MEDICINE HAT – A road left unfinished in the city for more than a decade which has often been compared with an unintended roller-coaster by residents will be completed this year.
“The day before WHO declared a pandemic, the number one story and the number one complaint I was receiving on social media was, ‘Mayor Clugston, fix that road,’” said Mayor Ted Clugston on Tuesday regarding Box Springs Boulevard. “We have gotten a deal with Box Springs Business Park to fix that road.”
The city announced Monday the municipality and developer, Box Springs Business Park, had come to an agreement to complete the road – portions of which had not had a top layer of asphalt since 2007 – that has had left drains above grade and has been a source of multiple deep puddles and potholes.
