PHOTOS: Anti-flood barrier being built to shield structure in Little Red park
The City of Prince Albert is putting up a protective barrier to protect Cosmo Lodge from flood waters in Little Red River Park, and it expects the work to be completed Monday afternoon.
The Prince Albert Fire Department, representatives with the province and city staff are erecting a three-foot re-enforced cardboard and plastic barrier – a Hesco barrier.
City manager Robert Cotterill said they are able to take sand and fill the inside of the barrier’s container.
He said the flood waters are “not close right now” to Cosmo Lodge.
