A large water main maintenance project on College Drive will restrict driving lanes between Cumberland and Clarence avenues until October. Slow-moving traffic is expected through the area at peak driving times, which may cause delays for Saskatoon Transit routes.

Saskatoon Transit routes to and from downtown via the University Bridge will continue along College Drive; however, outbound bus stops on the south side of College Drive within the construction zone are planned to be closed until mid-August. The lane closures for the work area affect routes 4, 13, 16, 17, 43, 44, 45, 46, 81 and 82.

Riders with stops affected by the work zone may have to use a stop further from their destination. Consider loading your bike on the bus for the extra distance or try an e-scooter.

We thank our customers for their patience and cooperation through these service interruptions. Find Transit service alerts and real-time bus information on third-party apps like Transit and Google Maps Transit on desktop.

Road conditions are wet and slushy from rain and snow overnight, which is expected to continue today and tomorrow in Saskatoon. City crews were applying de-icing material as required on Circle Drive and other high-speed and high-traffic streets, bridges and intersections throughout the night.

Even with the use of salt to prevent icing, the fluctuation in temperature and wind gusting can create icy conditions. Drivers are reminded to leave extra time for travelling, slow down and be cautious for the morning peak commute.

As it continues snowing, City crews will be grading snow and slush from priority streets and sidewalks today. This slush can freeze and create slippery conditions as temperatures drop overnight.

We appreciate your cooperation and patience as we navigate through these weather conditions. Learn more about winter road maintenance at saskatoon.ca/snow.
