ACCESS TO CROCUS PRAIRIE PARK VIA CENTRAL AVENUE TEMPORARILY CLOSED

The City of Saskatoon is currently installing a sanitary force main and preparing to construct a new roadway on Central Avenue. To accommodate the current phase of construction, Central Avenue is closed in both directions between Garvie Road and Agra Road. The force main will move sanitary sewage from Attridge Drive to the Aspen Ridge lift station.

As a result of construction, access to the Meewasin Trail at Crocus Prairie Park via Central Avenue is temporarily closed. The City asks drivers not to enter the construction zone to access the park. Citizens can continue to access the park via the trails at Sutherland Beach.

Construction on this section of Central Avenue is expected to be complete by the end of August, weather permitting.

The City thanks everyone for their patience while this necessary work is carried out.

Slow down, pay attention and respect work zones. Watch for pedestrians and work crews, and for everyone’s safety, please obey all detours, signs and barriers.
