New neighbourhood bikeway installed on Munroe Avenue
The City of Saskatoon continues to expand its cycling network, with the completion of a neighbourhood bikeway (using rapid deployment techniques) along Munroe Avenue between College Drive and 14th Street.
A reduced speed limit of 30 km/h in this section of Munroe Avenue will take effect on Sunday, August 31. A reduced speed limit is an important component of a neighbourhood bikeway to help create an environment that is comfortable for all levels of cyclists.
The Munroe Avenue Bikeway was installed using adaptable materials such as signs, pavement markings and pinned rubber curbs, which allows the City to adjust the design as needed to address concerns. The installation of this neighbourhood bikeway marks another push forward in making Saskatoon a bicycle-friendly city.
The Munroe Avenue corridor was approved as a neighbourhood bikeway by City Council in May 2024. This bikeway connects to the 14th Street Bikeway and provides access to the University of Saskatchewan.
