The sweep is on. Sweeping crews are coming to a street near you.
April 30, 2026 - 9:00am
The City of Saskatoon will begin residential street sweeping on Monday, May 4, 2026, as crews move into neighbourhoods following early-season work on major routes.
The sweep is on. Operations will progress across the city in phases. Residents can find their sweep date and updates at saskatoon.ca/sweep.
Temporary yellow “No Parking” signs will be installed at least 36 hours before sweeping. Residents are required to move vehicles by 7 a.m. on the posted day to allow crews full access to the curb. Vehicles left in areas with parking restrictions will be ticketed and relocated.
Street sweeping is weather-dependent. Crews are unable to operate effectively in wet conditions, as rain causes debris to stick to the road surface and limits the ability of sweepers to collect material. This can result in incomplete cleaning and may require return visits. If rain impacts operations, schedule adjustments will be communicated.
Traffic Bridge will be closed between Spadina Crescent and 11th Street starting Friday evening
April 30, 2026 - 6:00am
Traffic Bridge will be closed between Spadina Crescent and 11th Street starting Friday, May 1, at 7:00 p.m. for bridge cleaning. Detours will be in place guiding motorists around the area. This project is expected to take one night 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.

City Council directs Administration to provide more information for First Avenue Link rapid transit corridor
April 29, 2026 - 4:22pm
After considering an approval report on the First Avenue Link Corridor concept plan changes, City Council defeated the motion as presented. Council has now directed Administration to meet with the Saskatoon Accessibility Advisory Committee to review the accessibility plan. Council also directed the Administration to report back with broader operational considerations, including emergency response planning, emergency access and snow removal plans.
Once this information is received, Council will determine the next steps and will then direct Administration on how to proceed with the Link design on First Avenue.
In the meantime, work continues on the Link project elsewhere in the city, with the College Drive Link corridor and numerous station platforms throughout the city currently under construction. So far, 41station platforms are already built.
Meeting minutes and associated reports are available on the City of Saskatoon website. For more information on the Link rapid transit project, visit saskatoon.ca/link.
