Crews are continuing their work along Veterans Way in Okotoks as the new retaining wall is nearing completion.

The wall was installed after the old one started to show signs of failure over time.

The construction has lead to traffic being split off with single lanes in both directions for a short distance.

But those crews will still be working in the area a little longer than expected as it could be a few more days.

Once wall is completed it will be designed in order to have a local artist submit an idea for a mural to add more flare to it.

Motorists are still asked to be aware of the crews working on the wall and slow down in the single lanes.
