15 artikulo 3 linggo ang nakalipas 290

🌦️ Panahon at Mga Daan

  1. Isasara ang 184 Street overpass sa loob ng tatlong buwan simula sa linggo ng 10 Agosto. Ayon sa City of Edmonton, pansamantalang isasara ang tulay ng 184 Street sa ibabaw ng Yellowhead Trail sa lahat ng dumadaan nang humigit-kumulang tatlong buwan habang pinapalitan ng crews ang bridge deck, nire-repave ang asphalt at ini-install ang pinahusay na waterproofing; mananatiling bukas ang mga ramp at lokal na access at muling bubuksan ang overpass sa taglagas.
  2. Mahigit 4,000 crop-insurance claims ang inihain ng mga prodyuser sa Prairie matapos ang magulong Hulyo. Sinabi ng Canadian Crop Hail Association na sinaklaw ng mga claim ang higit sa isang milyong ektarya at binanggit ang Westlock, Goodridge at Leduc bilang mga komunidad sa Alberta na matinding tinamaan; inilarawan ni Municipal Hail Insurance CEO Rodney Schoettler bilang pinakamalaking pinsalang lugar sa kanyang 39 na taong karera.

🎨 Komunidad at Kultura

  1. Nag-ulat ang mga nangungupahan sa Boardwalk Centre ng pagbaha at pinsalang yunit dahil sa mga bagyo noong huling bahagi ng Hulyo. Sinasabi ng mga residente sa highrise sa Jasper Avenue na nasira ang kisame, pader at isang pader ng balkonahe sa ika-17 palapag; humihingi ng kabayaran at pagkumpuni si tenant Nikita Butakov habang ang iba ay nagrereklamo ng hirap sa pakikipag-ugnayan sa mga insurer ng Boardwalk.
  2. Nakumpirma ang dalawang karagdagang kaso ng Dutch elm disease (isang fungal na sakit na pumapatay sa mga elm), ang ika-15 at ika-16 na kaso sa Edmonton. Ayon sa lungsod, parehong nasa pag-aari ng lungsod ang mga nahawang elm sa Downtown at Delwood; mag-uumpisa ang pag-aalis na naka-coordinate sa CFIA at Alberta, at aalisin din ang anumang elm sa loob ng 20 metro mula sa mga nahawaang puno.

🏈 Palakasan

  1. Bibisita ang Edmonton Elks (6-2) sa Montreal matapos kumpirmahin ang pagbago-bagong depensa ng Alouettes. Naglista ang Montreal ng maraming kawalan sa depensa para sa laro sa Sabado — Geoffrey Cantin-Arku, Najee Murray, Wesley Sutton at Mustafa Johnson — at pinangalanan sina Micah Awe at Faion Hicks bilang mga kapalit; natalo ng Elks ang Alouettes noong naunang bahagi ng season at nangunguna sila sa West Division.
  2. Si Nathan Rourke ang mag-uumpisa para sa B.C. Lions matapos gumaling sa shoulder injury na natamo sa Edmonton noong 17 Hulyo. Nakabalik si Rourke sa full practice at nakalista bilang starter para sa laro sa Sabado; may 71.3% completion siya ng passes para sa 1,403 yards at lima touchdown ngayong season.
