Director of Engineering and Asses Services, Pinky De La Cruz says, “Over the last couple of years, Cochrane Council has made significant investments in Cochrane’s infrastructure – from improvements to Railway Street to construction and opening of the Jack Tennant Memorial Bridge and James Walker Trail, to the resurfacing of the Centennial Park Playground. 2023 represents another significant investment year, as we look to complete some critical projects as well as initiate a number of new ones. This open house is a great opportunity for all interested community members to learn more and share their feedback.”
