Construction of a section of the West-Central Multi-Use Corridor has been completed, providing safer and more accessible travel as part of Saskatoon’s Active Transportation Plan. 

Connecting 20th Street to Avenue Q, this pathway is a game-changer for people walking or riding their bicycles, improving safety and facilitating easy movement through the Pleasant Hill, Riversdale and West Industrial neighborhoods. 

The WCMUC began with a proposed 3 km multi-use pathway adjacent to the CP tracks from Idylwyld Drive to Avenue W South, which was approved by City Council in 2013. Construction of the section between Idylwyld Drive and 22nd Street West was completed in 2020. 

The Active Transportation Plan will improve options for moving around Saskatoon, whether it’s by walking, biking, e-scooter or other forms of active transportation. The plan will help shape changes in infrastructure and support programs that will encourage all of us to use active forms of transportation more often.

Happy Travels, Saskatoon!

Broadway Avenue will be closed from Maple to Isabella streets for a water main valve replacement on Tuesday, November 28, starting at 8:00 a.m. Detours will be in place guiding motorists around the work zone. This project is expected to take one day to complete, weather permitting and barring any unforeseen circumstances.

The City of Saskatoon is pleased to announce $200,000 funding from the Government of Canada under the Active Transportation Fund to support the implementation of its Active Transportation Plan. The Active Transportation Plan aims to provide more choices to move around Saskatoon by addressing infrastructure for cycling, walking and other modes of active transportation.  

“Residents of Saskatoon increasingly walk, bike, drive or use public transportation to get to their destinations. Our government is investing in these projects to ensure their commutes are safe and pleasant, and to encourage more people to take up active transportation. It is good for our health and for our environment,” says the Honourable Dominic LeBlanc, Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs, Infrastructure and Communities. 

“This funding focuses on planning and education projects, which supports the goals of the Active Transportation Plan to have more places for walking and cycling safely, to build a culture for active transportation, and to encourage more people to walk and ride a bike,” says Jay Magus, Director of Transportation. 

The funding is divided between four active transportation projects, with $50,000 allocated for each:  

1. Millar Avenue from 43rd Street to Marquis Drive: Planning project that includes assessment, engagement and design of a multi-use pathway. 

2. College Drive from Preston Avenue to McOrmond Drive: Feasibility analysis to determine active transportation crossings at interchanges and rail crossings. 

3. Victoria Avenue from Taylor Street to Ruth Street: Planning project that includes assessment, engagement, and design of pedestrian improvements and an all ages and abilities cycling facility. 

4. Active Transportation Street Team: Provide an education program about the rules of the road and the existing bike network.  

“We continuously invest in making Saskatoon a great place to live. Providing active transportation options is one of many ways we are working to support our residents," says Magus.
