Extended Cold continues to affect service
January 5, 2022 - 4:00pm
The extended cold temperatures continue to cause shortages of buses and delays.
Cold temperatures can cause the ‘check engine’ light to turn on and cause condensation in the air system which may freeze valves leading to suspension issues or frozen brakes. In either situation, to ensure buses are safe to operate, a mechanic must verify the condition of the bus or complete any repairs before it can return to the road.
Before leaving to catch the bus, riders are encouraged to check for service alerts on the Transit app or Google Maps Transit on desktop. “Favourite” the routes taken most often in the Transit app to receive push notifications about service disruptions. Service alert information can also be found at SaskatoonTransit.ca on Twitter @stoontransit or by calling 306.975.3100.
Saskatoon Transit thanks riders for their patience and understanding as we work through this period of cold weather.

UPDATE: Groomed cross country ski trails expected to be ready January 10 to 14, 2022
January 4, 2022 - 2:30pm
Groomed cross country ski trails maintained by the City of Saskatoon are expected to be ready between January 10 to 14, 2022, at the Upper and Lower Meewasin, Diefenbaker, Kinsmen, and Forest Parks.
Ski trails were originally expected to ready the first week of January, but equipment repairs along with the cold weather have delayed the start of the season by approximately one week.
Following the completion of the main cross country ski trails, the City will begin grooming trails in 30 neighbourhood parks. This new initiative supports Saskatoon’s WintercityYXE Strategy and is run in partnership with various Community Associations throughout the city.
Visit saskatoon.ca/ski for trail locations and updates on conditions. Additional trails are groomed by Saskatoon Nordic Ski Club including classic and skate skiing loops at the Holiday and Wildwood Golf Courses. Visit saskatoonnordicski.ca for more information.
