News Releases

Unplanned sanitary sewer work is underway at Avenue H between Rusholme Road and 28th Street. This may result in the full closure of the street while repairs are underway. 

Motorists are asked to plan for delays or avoid the area if possible. Detours are 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.

Saskatoon Transit may be affected by these detours. Transit service alerts and real-time bus information are available on third-party apps like Transit and Google Maps Transit on desktop.

Saskatoon Transit has again partnered with the Saskatoon EX to offer free Transit service for Superpass holders to Prarieland Park from August 6 to 11. Riders looking to take the bus simply need to show the bus operator their Superpass or wristband when boarding for a free ride.

Children 10 and under ride free on Wednesday, August 7, and older adults (65+) ride free on Thursday, August 8, without a Superpass. 

Service on Sunday night will be extended with three special service routes from the Exhibition loop on the west side of Lorne Avenue, just south of Ruth Street. The additional service on Sunday night allows people to leave the event even after regular service is over. Regular fares apply ($3.00 per trip) and can be purchased on mobile phones using the TGo or transit app. Transfers and passes are also accepted. Sunday night service will not be visible on trip planning apps.

• Bus #1 – to Downtown & Lawson Mall at 9:30pm, 10:15pm, 11 pm & 11:45pm  
• Bus #2 – to Market Mall, Centre Mall & University Heights at 9:45pm, 10:30pm & 11:15pm 
• Bus #3 – to Confederation & Downtown at 9:15pm, 10 pm, 10:45pm & 11:30pm

Multi-modal options are available in the Transit app to seamlessly integrate trips with active transportation, OnDemand Transit, riide or Uber using the Transit+ feature.
