City of Saskatoon staff and structural engineers attended the site immediately following a collision with the concrete overpass structure at Circle Drive and Highways 11/16 during the evening of March 5 and continue to assess the extent of the damage.

Planning for repairs to the overpass is underway. Due to the complexity and extent of the required work, a repair timeline is not available at this time.

Highway 16 eastbound will remain reduced to a single lane until repairs can be arranged and completed. Work is ongoing to safely remove loose concrete and address immediate safety concerns. Provided the structure is confirmed to be safe, the City anticipates reopening Highway 11 northbound lanes beneath the structure by the end of the day. Drivers are asked to follow all signs and detours in place.

The City will continue to monitor the situation and keep the public informed of any impacts.

Post-event drop-off is at the downtown terminal and regular fares apply ($3.00 per trip). Fare can be purchased on your mobile phone using either the TGo or transit app, transfers and passes are also accepted. Typically, buses arrive onsite 30 minutes prior to the end of the event.
