Construction on two major roadways expected to cause traffic delays
July 4, 2022 - 8:00am
Construction is expected to cause traffic delays on two major roadways over the next few weeks.
Beginning the evening of Tuesday, July 5, the 22-year-old Attridge Drive overpass at Circle Drive will undergo preventative maintenance, including repaving, over the next six weeks. One lane will remain open for traffic in each direction, and on and off ramps will remain accessible. At times during construction, there will be work underneath the overpass and lane closures on Circle Drive North can be expected in the evening hours.
Also on Tuesday, July 5, resurfacing will begin in the northbound lanes of Idylwyld Drive North from 51st Street to Marquis Drive. One northbound lane will always remain open to traffic and the project is expected to continue for approximately two weeks.
Saskatoon Transit may be affected by construction. Transit service alerts and real-time bus information are available on third-party apps like Transit and Google Maps Transit on desktop.
