News Releases
As the City continues to roll out the FlexParking program in stages, an additional 25 pay stations will be activated on Wednesday, March 4, on the following streets:
- 1st Avenue between 20th and 23rd Street
- 20th, 22nd and 23rd Street between 1st and 4th Avenue
When the new, flexible pay stations are turned on, the old coin meters will be covered with a white and yellow hood that directs drivers to use the pay stations. Until drivers encounter this hooding at the space they wish to park, they should continue to plug the old coin meters.
The City of Saskatoon invites residents to attend one of three important open public engagement events to learn more and provide input on the proposed Growth Plan to Half a Million (Growth Plan), which includes long-term plans for a new transit system with Bus Rapid Transit (BRT); a new river crossing at 33rd Street combined with BRT lanes on the University Bridge; and redevelopment along major corridors like 8th Street, 22nd Street, and Preston Avenue.

DRIVERS REMINDED TO USE EXTREME CAUTION
Mild weather on Monday followed by today’s drop in temperatures and snow is causing slippery road conditions for drivers. The City would like to caution residents to slow down as the ice is not visible under the fresh layer of snow.
Roadway crews are out sanding and salting priority streets on a continual basis. Anti-icing products have been very successful this winter to keep roads clear; however, current blowing snow conditions polishes the ice between applications.
