REDCLIFF, AB – The Town of Redcliff has closed its River Hill Walking Trail due to safety concerns.

On Facebook, the town says icy conditions have made the trail unsafe, and crews are working to clear it.

An update will be provided when conditions of the trail improve, the town says.

Trail conditions are also poor in Medicine Hat.

In a news release, the city says extremely poor weather conditions have made some city trails difficult to clear and maintain.

They say staff from parks and recreation and municipal works are actively working on catching up on winter trail maintenance and expect to be completed Friday.

The city reminds the public to stay safe and be cautious on the trail system.
