Guelph residents shouldn’t be alarmed if they see a drone hovering above the city.
The City of Guelph says the drone will be used to collect topographic survey data for future reconstruction of the downtown streets.
The city plans to fly the drone on Friday (weather permitting), covering the area of Wyndham Street South, Carden Street, Wellington Street, Gordon Street and Neeve Street.

They say the initiative is part of the city’s efforts to revitalize downtown as an even more prosperous urban centre.
