Very soon, 8th street in Airdrie will look a bit brighter thanks to a new light.

Crews are currently installing a new street light on southbound 8th Street approaching the intersection with Prairie Springs Drive.

The installation is expected to last until tomorrow afternoon (March 30th).

As a result, a small part of the southbound lane of 8th Street is closed and speed limits are down to 50km.
