The Town of High River has has launched a new, mobile-friendly and more accessible municipal website.

Claire Halpin, communications advisor for the Town says the goal of the new design was to improve navigation and readability, making it clean, searchable and mobile-friendly.

The new site reflects the "Rooted in People" brand for the Town and will combine the former "Choose High River," business and tourism websites into one convenient location.

Halpin says the site will be easier for residents to use and it illustrates what an amazing and beautiful place High River is.

Some of the features include larger and more detailed menus, an upgraded special event calendar, custom search boxes and mobile-friendly recreation schedules.

The site was launched on August 10 but it could take up to 24 hours to show up in its new form on all devices.

The new website is considered to be a living project and the communications division will continue to improve and build the site based on feedback from administration and the community.
