Every worker is someone’s someone: Please respect work zones
May 7, 2025 - 9:00am
- Work zones are workplaces. Be courteous, obey signage and never move or bypass pylons, barriers or tape.
- Respect all types of work zones. From road crews and pavement line painters to Saskatoon Light & Power and water and waste teams, work happens day and night on streets, in back lanes and on sidewalks.
- Slow down and stay alert. Speeding and ignoring signs put lives at risk. The person behind the cone or barricade might be someone’s parent, child, sibling or best friend, just like your loved ones.
As construction season gets underway, the City of Saskatoon is reminding residents and visitors to respect work zones on roads, sidewalks and in neighbourhoods across Saskatoon. Behind every safety vest and barricade is a real person: a parent, a partner, a friend, a teammate.
From road repairs and power line upgrades to water main maintenance and back lane work, crews are on the job every day to keep Saskatoon running smoothly. Whether you're driving, walking or biking, staying alert and following posted signage is crucial in helping these workers make it home safely.
“Our crews work in all corners of the city, often in unpredictable conditions, and they deserve to be treated with respect and care,” says Terry Schmidt, General Manager of Transportation & Construction. “They’re more than city employees—they’re someone’s loved one.”
Key reminders for all road users:
Respecting work zones is about protecting everyone; residents, visitors and the people who make our city work, whether they’re under the street, above the power lines or working curbside in your neighbourhood.
For more information and safety tips, visit saskatoon.ca/respectworkzones.
